TEXT 1
TEACHER
There's nothing better than doing something worthwhile, and making money to boot!
Everyone you know older than five has been influenced by a teacher. Teachers prepare and
educate students for the world. Starting with teaching the basics of math, reading and skills in
preschool and elementary school, and move to more complex and specialized concepts in
middle, high school and post-secondary school.
Teachers create lesson plans and teach those plans to the entire class, individually to
students or in small groups, track student progress and present the information to parents,
create tests, create and reinforce classroom rules, work with school administration prepare
students for standardized tests, and manage students outside the classroom, such as in school
hallways, detention, etc.
Other types of teachers include special education teachers, who work with students
with a range of disabilities, adult literacy and GED teachers, working with adults and young
adults who are no longer in school, and post-secondary teachers in colleges, universities and
vocational schools.

TEXT 2
GENERAL PEDIATRICIAN
General pediatricians are doctors who work with babies, children and adolescents.
Pediatric physicians must have general medical knowledge and an understanding of how
treatments affect different developmental growth stages. Pediatricians must complete four
years of college, four years of medical school and a 3- to 8-year residency. They must also
acquire certification through the American Board of Pediatricians.
A general pediatrician treats all types of infectious childhood diseases, including
mumps, measles and chicken pox. During the course of a regular workday, a doctor might
deal with matters ranging from a case of acne to a child's ongoing battle with muscular
dystrophy. Many of their patients have yet to develop communication skills; therefore,
physicians must be able to provide a diagnosis based on visual and auditory indicators. Most
general pediatricians work in family health practices. HMOs and children's hospitals hire the
majority of pediatricians, with smaller private pediatric clinics being the second largest
employer.
 Most pediatricians work more than full-time, usually around 60 hours per week.
Those who work in hospitals or clinics should often work in shift rotations and on an on-call
basis. Even general pediatricians in private practice are often called in to consult with
hospital doctors when one of their regular patients is brought in as an emergency patient.
Along with general medicine, growth and development monitoring are the basis of a
pediatrician's practice. A general pediatrician must track and administer immunizations on
schedule. The doctor must be able to communicate well with both children and parents. They
often need to provide detailed explanations of treatment course options and assuage fears.
Sympathetic bedside manners are highly valued in this particular area of medicine
