I'm a software engineer. Just 6 months have passed and i have already started contemplating changing my profession. Not that i dont love my work but want to make my life more meaningful.
Fresh out of college, i have fond memories of it and am thinking of joining it as a lecturer.
I know that money could flow in more freely but i guess i can live it with.
Is it worth giving a try?

You and your students will get a lot more out of it if you are passionate about it. Most teachers teach because they feel a calling, not for the money.

I taught in the UK for 30 years full time and enjoyed it, but with children aged 9 to 13. Over here , IT teachers are in very short supply; I don't know what it's like where you are. Do you want to teach, ie get involved with kids, or lecture, ie stand in front of a group of students and talk to them. Think about it. Hope this helps.

Teaching is the best option if you have abilities to become best teacher for your students. If you have patience and interest in teaching then it is not only the best option for you but also you are doing justice to society and students. If you really have the qualities what a good teacher should have then go ahead and become a teacher. It gives self satisfaction and gives a meaning for your life and has the satisfaction of building many others life.
So Go ahead if you have patience, interest and want to help students.

Lecturing is not teaching...teaching is being actively engaged to your students. When you lecture you do not do this, its like watching a video.

teaching is good but why not become a tutor .You can earn more that way and you are more free. Tutors are in quite a demand nowadays.

Try.Why not.Just make sure you're good at handling humans.Class control is most important.If you're too kind,they'll step on your head.
Good Luck.
