I am graduate in mathematics with 58.62%. Can I become a teacher in high school?

To know if education is really the right career path for you, make sure you have an understanding of what makes a good teacher and that you have the skills and characteristics compatible with teaching. To be a good teacher, you must enjoy being around other people and interacting with them, especially young people. Teaching is a social job that involves constant interaction with others. Good teachers are also patient. If you lose your temper easily, a school setting may not be the right workplace for you. Teachers are flexible and good at quick decision-making. They should be able to make adjustments when things don't go exactly as planned (because they often don't). Teachers must be strict to an extent and able to enforce rules, but they also need to pick their battles. Most importantly, teachers care. They care about their students and the students' success. Without this characteristic, being a teacher will become a chore after a while. If you feel passionate about a particular content area or about learning in general and you truly care about others, you have the potential to become a great teacher.
