Re: “Thinking of teaching? Think again...”

I feel your pain, 8 years ago when I started all this it was supposed to be the most promising market. Now Im facing a world where when I finally get my degree and license this May, I still wont be allowed to sub til I take another course that will take the remaining school days and most of the summer to 'process'. Plus, they sure as heck dont tell you how much red tape there is when it comes to getting a perm position. The sad truth is, so many of us are AMAZING teachers. They've made it incredibly hard to get into the programs, people have to be super qualified, the programs throw you through the ringer and produce teachers who are far more equipped to deal with the differentiated learning styles, needs, and ever changing systems than ever before. I would be so proud to have any of my peers teach my future kids. But there's no place for any of us here, so we all leave for greener pastures and the province misses out on people who I believe will be game changers.
