He immediately joined the faculty there as a lecturer in mathematics but left after three semesters because of unpromising prospects. He could not survive on his salary as a lecturer. The [[Bavaria|Bavarian government]] offered him a post as a teacher of mathematics and physics at a poor quality school in [[Bamberg]] which Ohm accepted in January 1813. Unhappy with his job, Georg began writing an elementary textbook on [[geometry]] as a way to prove his abilities. Ohm's school was closed down in February 1816. The Bavarian government then sent him to an overcrowded school in Bamberg to help out with the teaching of mathematics.
