Do math teachers actually want to be math teachers?

I have always loved teaching mathematics.

I have never enjoyed dealing with a bad class.  Unfortunately 2 or 3 really unruly students can totally destroy a class.  

BUT

There is nowhere that I would rather be than in a classroom teaching mathematics to reasonably/well behaved students.  

I love mathematics and I love to share my passion with other people that is why I spend so much time on this forum.  

I wouldn't see why not

Probably so, if they didn't want to be math teachers then they wouldn't have gone to collage to be a math teacher

*sarcasitc tone* OFCOURSE THEY DO because EVERYONE wants to become mathemeticians and teach children something they will never have to use in life EVER! Rather than something more important like discovering the secrets to the universe.

That's cool........

a while ago i wanted to be a math teacher because i know a lot of people dislike math and have trouble with it so i wanted to teach in a way that would help students! last year i absolutly detested math but this year in algebra 1-2 i love it! it sometimes depends on the teacher
