Re: A conversation w/ daryn re: being a teacher
[ QUOTE ]
Here is what i could never stand to be a teacher: all these strict rules and general bs. An education degree? That sounds like a complete waste of time. The procedure for being a teacher is too mechanical. I think that all of this nonsense weeds out all of the creative people. [/ QUOTE ] i think i agree with you in general about this [/ QUOTE ] Ok, maybe you can tell us what is this 'nonsense' he's talking about.... [/ QUOTE ] the way i took it was there are so many hoops you have to jump through to become a teacher, and some really qualified people might just say F it [/ QUOTE ] Gotcha...and I agree. Not sure about Mass, but the way to do it is to get your teaching license (paperwork, recommendations, fingerprints, take a test or two, then wait 3 months - really not so bad) and then when you get hired by a district, they will often pay for your M.Ed. Another thing about the education profession that is frustrating is that it does attract some schlubs that don't pull their weight and other morons who couldn't make it in the private sector due to sloth or incompetence. Oh man, I could tell you stories... |
