Been a specie of teacher my whole adult life, except for the years given to Uncle Sam.
Taught in Middle School, High School, and 2 research universities.
Let me be the first to say that once you gain tenure at the university level, life is wonderfully pleasant. Mine certainly is. I teach a couple of classes per semester, and perform research. They pay me really well to do this.
Much better than public school.
However, only about half (or less) get tenure. Last year at my university less than 25% of the applicants made it. Publish or perish can be an evil paradigm.
