I taught first and second year university students and it doesn't get much easier at those ages. Being on stage every day was really hard. There's a point though when you stop trying to create from scratch every day and start coasting a bit.

I disagree with paying math/ science backgrounds more based on earning potential in other fields. Subject matter knowledge is the easy part. The hard part is developing teaching skills and that puts all teachers on an even field. Knowing more and advanced science does not help with teaching basic high school curriculum. You can get five semesters in to your university program before you ever see a real professor.
