You WILL do it!
I went to college to teach, but after getting my undergrad in English it just didn't work out. So I went to work full time.
So, after 10 years and a bunch of jobs that I hated......I lost my job, again.
I looked for 19 months. My wife told me to start looking into teaching. We had always talked about it....and it took me 10 years to finally SEE the path laid out before me.
Fortunately Ky offers a path to teaching through alternative certification. It is TOUGH. You are a fully time grad student and a full time teacher as well....
So, after 1 year of teaching and a year taking over 60 graduate hours I graduated this past weekend with a Masters in Teaching with dual certification in HS and MS English and Language Arts.
If I can do it, anyone can!
