What is the work environment for an english teacher?

Jasmine, this really depends on what type of English you want to teach. Do you want to teach reading and writing at the elementary level? Language Arts at the middle school level? English literature or language at the high school level? Do you want to become an English professor at college? Or do you want to teach English as a second language, either in the US or abroad? In order to answer this question, we need some more details!

I am an English teacher, we work with other teachers of all different subjects. We have 5 teaching blocks or periods per day, 1 prep period, and 1 lunch period. Depending on the grade level the work environment shifts. But generally we are teaching different cohorts of students each period of the day, typically teaching the same lessons depending on grade and level, and or prepping and grading work. I love working as a teacher.
