Teacher

A teacher is a person who provides education and instruction to students.

Teachers are typically employed by schools, colleges, and universities, and they may work with students of all ages, from preschoolers to adults. Teachers play a critical role in the development and education of students, and they are responsible for planning and delivering lessons, grading assignments, and providing feedback and support to students. Teachers may specialize in a particular subject area, such as math, science, or English, and they may be certified or licensed by the state in which they work. Teaching can be a rewarding and challenging profession, and it requires a combination of knowledge, skills, and dedication.
