Why I Quit Teaching for a Web Design Career

Teaching is a very rewarding experience. I love the students, the classroom, everything about it. However, the realities of promotions in the profession are still archaic being a profession that is definitely degree and higher degree based. This equates to putting you in a slump of even more debt that you just can't afford. I began Web Designing in 2011 before I even started teaching. The opportunity finally arose for me to leave and do it full time.
