My Interest
• I personally am interested in being a Secondary School Teacher, it pays
the highest and will have the most benefits. It does require the most
amount of education out of the 3 careers but that makes sense when
you compare the pays. It also has the largest success over the whole
province and can be transferred across the country and possibly world
too.
