I'm a 24-year-old college graduate in an economic recession, so I need to be one thing above all: patient. I've been subbing in the area, but I'm having trouble seeing it as valuable teaching experience.
I applied for a job as a teaching assistant in a Pre-K classroom. The interview went well, but I'm still not sure it's the right step for me. I need to work on getting certified in the Ohio and other surrounding states. I've looked at the Ohio Department of Education website and had a hard time finding out what test I need to take.
So, let's step back and take a look at the big picture: My ultimate goal is to get position in the secondary setting as a teacher of Language Arts. My current status?
-waiting on the results of my minor certification test
-not even close to making progress on my portfolio
-working as a substitute teacher and a server
-watching all of my friends move away from Ypsilanti
I'm in limbo. It doesn't help that I have a new boyfriend and would rather not move away from him just yet. Oh man. Life.
