TEACING YOUR KIDS!!!! *crazy laughter*
But seriously, I have finished my student teaching and now I am on my way to be a full fledged teacher. All that is left is to take a $150 test and then wait 4 weeks for my certification. So, I am going to teach your kids and maybe I will be teaching some of you here on this board. Just wanted to say that cause I am really excited about the knowledge that the last 5 1/2 years of my life weren't a waste.

I'm working on the same plan, man. Good luck to you, and keep me updated as to the status of your job. What do you want to teach? Ideally I want to do highschool history.
thats cool, to see a successful stoner. i give u mad props.
congrats man, definitely an accomplishment!
Oddly enough, I am a history major. I specialize in American History. I eventually want to go for my AP certification so I can teach an AP U.S. History Class. Thats my goal anyway.Quote:

That reminds me of my AP U.S. History class in high school. My teacher so down to earth and chill, and she also loved to smoke. She would never admit it to any of us either in school or whenever we saw her at a lot of the same concerts we went to, but you could tell, and I'm sure she knew it too. We'd always go in her room during lunch and just talk about music or whatever too. Hopefully you too can steer the next generation in the right direction, and to let them think for themselves. : )Quote:

We met in High School and we stayed togethor through the internet (she was foriegn exchange). She is pretty chill. Now i just need to work up the guts to ask her out. Funny, she can stay at my house and chill but I just can't ask her out. Damn.

teaching would suck dick good luck
Teaching is a good gig. I did it for three years right after college. I taught high school English and journalism. I enjoyed the kids a lot, but they don't pay teachers nearly enough in Texas. So I moved onto other things.
One thing I learned during the process was that when kids sense that you like them, they tend to succeed a lot more than they do if they don't think you value them. They really do thrive with positive feedback and affection, and a lot of them really need someone in their lives who care. That's one of the many neat things about teaching--and about being a parent, too--the ability to be a positive influence in someone's life.
Good luck to you! (You won't be teaching my kid. He's already in college now, giving grief to college professors instead of high school teachers. I'm sure you'll get plenty of others, though!)
I'm majoring in Education, as well. I want to teach AP Literature/Literature classes. The current senior/junior AP Lit teacher, my favorite teacher PERIOD, teacher lit, ap lit, speech, and drama class. That's sorta the way I want to go.
Glad you made it, man!!!
congradulations on ur wonderful achievement...
i wish u the best...
u mite need it...
lol...
peace...
congrats on the degree. i was going to become a teacher and thought "why go to school and learn bullshit for 5 years to make 25K a year?" but i was going to teach special ed so i was learning stuff about disabilities and shit i already know from working in the field for 6+ years. it's good to hear you're passionate about the subject and teaching, after going to some of the classes in "one of the top teaching schools in the nation", i think education could definitely use a teacher thats down to earth. too many people i met were the most uptight closed minded people ever. where are you going to be teaching?
my AP Creative Writing / Literature teacher ...
