I'm strongly considering doing a photography major, but other than working as a freelance photographer or working for a magazine company, I don't know of many jobs that are specifically for photographers. #photography #majors #job

I want to be a teacher because I love to interact with people, and kids are easy to understand and it’s great to watch them grow. But can someone give me optimism on the pay, and being able to support a family on the income?
I want to become a teacher, but the pay may not be enough to support a family I might possibly want in the future. #education #teaching #children #working-with-children #salary
