Abstract
Public school teachers in new york City play a crucial role to the functioning of the city. teachers are one of the greatest influences in the life of a child. However, it is important to understand that being a teacher is not just a role; it is an occupation. This paper will explain what one needs to do to become a teacher in new york City, and the reasons why that might be desirable. I will also explain how much teachers get paid and which union represents them. All new york City teachers are members of the United Federation of teachers by default. I will briefly outline a history of teaching in new york City to understand how the profession became what it is today. I will also analyze the results of a survey conducted by my class to understand what public views are of the occupation. A license is required to teach in public schools in most states, including new york. There are various routes one can take to obtain this license; the typical route is by first completing a Bachelor's Degree from a teacher education program, preferably at an accredited school.
