I am a teacher. You can't go into with the "I can save the world" mentality. It will ruin your life because there are so many things out of your control. It can be a great job if you know what you are getting yourself into. You don't have that much flexibility on lesson plans and some places will fire you if your students don't do well on standardized tests. I would try to sub for a few days to get a feel of the classroom.
