Boom.......whistle.........POW Boom.......whistle.........POW Boom.......whistle.........POW All girls are suddenly covered in snow! Hey guys, I am applying to go back to grad school again. I have an MBA and am thinking of getting an education degree with a goal to teach any English (but hopefully hopefully Literature) in the high school arena. I figure to do it up right, it'll take me 18 months. Have I lost my darn mind or what? I'd only teach in a larger private school or larger Christian school and those positions can be either very hard or super easy to come by. What do you guys think?

I already more or less have a job waiting for me (the dean of students a one of the schools I have my eye on is one of my best friends.) 5. I will be doing this for all the right reasons as I have truly always WANTED to do it. 6. I am a total nimrod and scatter brained idiot which will make me the prefect classroom Lit teacher.

Originally Posted By tiggerdis_ hey phftfttfht, I have to clear the snow from my mouth before I can answer... ahem.... Yes, I am an educator. I'm presently working as a Support Teacher, which means, I'm the one who takes out reading groups for children who are below grade level, as well as one who does educational testing. I have lots of meetings (hate them) and tons of paper work (hate that too), but no report cards either (love that). I absolutely adore working with the smaller groups of children. It's so rewarding when that little one who's been struggling finally recognizes the word "the" instead of trying to sound it out for the thousandth time. So..... I love it!
