Education degree worthless? |
I teach 8th grade at a middle school that is dangerous and poorly run. I hate my job and am starting to hate the profession. What else can I do with a BS in secondary education? Good teaching jobs are almost impossible to find! Check out the link below. Common industries for people with Education degrees include educational publishing, corporate training and counseling. You might want to consider adult education as well (it's nice to teach people who are in class voluntarily). Source(s): http://www.ucalgary.ca/careers/students/... Look for other schools to teach at. Check into private and charter schools. The experience of teaching at one of those might be what you were originally looking for. Best of luck I know somebody who felt the same way so he began taking classes so he could become a librarian. If you're really up for an adventure, you should teach abroad. Just Google (or Yahoo) "teaching abroad." There are many opportunities in Asia, Eastern Europe, and Central America. You can also teach at American schools abroad that cater to American students, usually children of expatriate government officials or military children. I am sorry you feel that way. I taught 8th grade science in a city district for 20 of the 30 years that I taught. I know the schools have changed, I sub now. My daughter teaches art in a middle school that is inner city also.She finds dangerous situations and not the support needed from administration. You did not say what your field is . You could try another level. There are science jobs. Many people try business careers.Try another area. There are teaching jobs in the south, in Hawaii, go to a job fair. Find a mentor teacher to talk to. There's not much else you can do. You might want to get your Master's in something and teach at a community college. |
