If you were going to teach a subject, what would it be and why?

I love English, and reading. That is what I would teach. When you teach people to read, you give them freedom. There are so many people out there who cannot read and write, and that creates a lack of freedom and potential for growth.

I agree. I would teach the Bible, which is what I am going to do, starting next Saturday. I'm looking forward to it. People need to know God loves them. I will be teaching several women how to navigate their way through the Bible.

And you will be good at it because you Bible studies show it. I wish you did Youtube.com videos of the Bible. That would be awesome!

I am not a native speaker. I am also an English language lover.I had learned it religiously during my school days. Right after I had graduated in my university and started to have a regular job in the hospital. I also worked as an EFL teacher as part-time in an academy school. At present, I am still teaching the English language online.

As a kid, I always played "pretend" teaching. I don't know what subject though. :)

I read about that not long ago. That is such a shame. It really is an art. There will come a time when printing is obsolete.

Writing and reading are very important skills to start with. After, you can learn everything you want like science, philosophy...... Personally, I love languages in general. I would teach Spanish.

You are right. Reading and writing open the window to more.

I would teach algebra. It was my favorite subject in college. I love math so much that I would like to motivate others to learn and like math. When I was a very young age I had a learning disability it took me a while to learn my multiplication tables. My professor in college was so inspiring and motivating it made me appreciate math even more.

Same here. I am an avid reader and writer so that would be my choice as well.

I hate teaching because i don't know how to teach, teachers are good gifted they know how to mould students mind and turn them back on right path.
