  1. Think very carefully about this >

    • the certification process will probably take at least a year or more, depending on the required course work you will need to complete

    •you will have to student teach for no pay for usually a semester

    •turnover of teachers is greater in those schools that have the most problems, meaning you often have to deal unpleasant issues not related to teaching > personality conflicts, student attitudes that are hostile, low moral of the staff, or motivating those who could not care less.

    I tried doing this sort of thing > I have a BBA, & returned for teacher certification, only to find out there were no jobs open.
