Hello everyone! I’m planning to apply to teacher’s college next year, and I’m curious about how manageable the pay is, especially for people who are child-free.

I don’t plan on having kids myself, but I often hear about teachers struggling financially. I understand that there are a lot of factors involved, but having to provide for others is definitely one of them. Do you find yourself still needing summer jobs or other sources of income?

I’d love to hear from anyone who can relate!

Edit: sorry for any confusion, my main worries lie with the lack of permanent positions and cuts! Thank you for your mostly kind comments
