Why are you required to student teach for so long without getting paid?
Why do you have to take 2 content tests to become a high school teacher?
Why do you have to take so many education classes to become a high school teacher?
This is in the state i live in-NM
Someone could get an A in everything I just mentioned and still have no idea how to teach a class.
I think if they want to control the teacher shortage, we need to change the requirements. Lesson the amount of classes, tests, and student teaching time.
If you already have a bachelors degree, I heard that you don't even have to do student teaching in NM. Why would would others have to do student teaching that are working on their bachelors?
So illogical. I just don't get it.
In my opinion, you have to know the knowlege of the subject you teach, follow the district rules and laws, then begin teaching your own class.
I don't understand why student teaching and content test are such a big deal.
