Considering teaching physics

General Questions

Hi y'all .

I'm a recent college graduate (2 years ago)

And I'm considering teaching physics/math

I'd love to hear your experiences. And whether or not teaching nowadays is a viable career option

About me

I'm from usa

I failed precalculus 3 times as a younger college student, took a few years off and majored in physics and graduated with a 3.1 GPA (not that that matters)

I have helped one of my professors with lecture notes and slides

And I have made YouTube videos where I try to explain all I have learned. I haven't posted in a couple years or so. But I did enjoy it

I also work at a grocery store and I am very social. Customer service, am I right?

Im not really asking if I'd excel at teaching but more like...

How do you all like it? How long have you been doing it for? Is there anything I should be concerned about?
