It is true, but she graduated in 2010. Teaching jobs in her area were nonexistent at that time.My niece did much the same thing. She got her bachelors in teaching only to find out no jobs existed. She is a waitress.I have just retired from 30 years of teaching--university & community college in the States and an international college prep high school program for 11th and 12th graders. I taught that program for 14 years in international schools. The first choice for most graduates of the program, who are from around the world, is either the UK or the US for their university studies. Our program, which has extremely high standards, is highly prized by universities around the world, including the US, schools that are hard to get into. I know from personal, direct experience thst US university degrees are highly valued by employers around the world and that a student will get what he or she puts into college studies.Oh...what would we do without the strawman?
Are you related to Big Ears?
Teaching degrees are the biggest scam out there. I got a master's in education with teaching license because newspapers would say there is a teacher shortage lots jobs. I went on teaching interviews always same thing heard we have over 100 people who applied we are hiring only one. We wont hire you as teacher but if you want sub for us for 50$ a day.
Instead of looking at degrees advertised as high demand jobs I should thought to myself ok what's a job no one wants.
Mortician would been better choice. No one wants to embalm dead bodies for a living
That is just simply not true. Teaching has one of the highest turnovers in the first 5 years. Any college graduate can walk in just about anywhere and get a job unless it is in PE, Art, or Music.
I have the exact opposite problem. I am ending my teaching career because no one want to hire someone at $60,000 a year when they can hire two college grads for $30,000 each.
I'll probably take a $25,000 pay cut because of that and starting a new career in my 50s.
What is she certified to teach? THAT is the question of importance.
