schoolteaching

Educating young students

Schoolteaching is the profession or activity of teaching in a school.

The word emphasizes the institutional setting—classrooms, curricula, grades—distinguishing it from tutoring, coaching, or informal instruction: She left corporate law for schoolteaching.

It often carries connotations of modest pay and public service.
