Preschool teachers care for and teach young children skills to prepare them for kindergarten like using words to communicate instead of fighting. They teach subjects like songs, cooking, crafts, and help children learn about the world. Preschool teachers need a bachelor's degree with classes in topics like anatomy, foreign language, and literature to properly educate young kids. Employment opportunities for preschool teachers are excellent due to factors like increasing birth rates and working parents, though salaries typically range from $16,600 to $32,050 depending on experience and education.
