Teaching, in my opinion, is a vocation or a calling of sorts. You have to like it or you can never really be a good teacher. It�s not something you can do "just because it�s a job" like typing, answering phones or boxing up goods. People do know if you like teaching or not, and a person who enjoys it, transmits that and this "feeling" is also passed on to the students.
The best teachers in school, were always the ones who tried to make the class as fun as possible. It didn�t matter if it was Math, Science or History. You could tell that they enjoyed what they were doing simply because they tried to make you interested in their subject.

If you are from Argentina, you should feel the same as me. In this country it�s definitely a feeling if you take into account salaries and conditions... LOL
