A common danger in teaching elementary is to do a burn-out. A lot of teachers do a burn-out in the first two years. Not everyone but the rate is sadly high.
There is not much chance that teacher will be replacing by robots because It's a job with emotion and management of a group and situations that are always different. For now, studies show It's almost impossible, but we never know.

Right now, I am doing my college to go to university after. I am in my first year. I have in mind that I would take a year off after my college to travel. My plan is to start teaching in 7 years, so at 25 years old.
Teachers are both, alone and part of a team. They are all alone in their class and their group individually, but they have colleagues to help or to work with.
Teachers have a lot of autonomy because they chose the project and how it functions in their classes, but have to follow the rules of the school.
