What You'll Do: Kindergarten teachers are involved in practically every aspect of a kid's life while he or she in school. You will have a wide range of duties that could include: general supervision, planning lessons, grading homework, giving quizzes or tests, teaching and giving demonstrations, keeping track of student progress, meeting with parents to share their children's performance, giving individualized attention to those who need it most, informing students of school and classroom rules, attending faculty meetings, and more. Kindergarten-age children are typically taught the fundamentals of math, science, English, art, music, and exercise. The exact topics you will teach and how in-depth you will go is determined by the school curriculum.

You'll probably work in a public elementary school during regular school hours but might be required to stay after for faculty meetings, parent-teacher meetings, creating lesson plans, grading, and extra-curricular activities. Full-time work is most typical for teachers, and summer months usually serve as vacation time since students are out of school.

Education and Training: To become a kindergarten teacher, you will need to get a four-year teaching degree. Specifically, a bachelor's degree in elementary education is recommended. Those who possess master's degrees may find it easier to get a job. Most elementary school teachers take multiple courses in child psychology, education, and a specific subject to teach such as math or science. If you have prior experience with tutoring or teaching, you will appear much more favorable to employers.

Aside from getting a teaching degree, you will need to receive a certification in the state you wish to teach in. Certification usually requires passing a standardized exam.

The Future: The kindergarten teaching profession is expected to grow at about 17% through 2020, though demand will vary by region.

The Pay: Annual salaries for Kindergarten Teachers in the U.S. range from $31,700 to $76,400, with the average median annual wage hitting $49,500 in 2011 as per the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
