Post: Question About Graduate Degree

Posted by Robert P on 8/27/08

    I am in the middle of completing an M.A. in History, but I
    am really wanting to get into teaching. My background is in
    the computer industry, but I came back to complete my M.A.
    so that I could teach. My goal is teach history, preferably
    at a private, Christian school.

    My question is this: I am burned out on writing research
    papers and really want to get my license to teach. My plan
    is to attend school and get certified to teach through a
    graduate program that offers certification and can lead to
    an M.A.Ed.

    Will not having completed my M.A. in history be looked at
    as giving up on something? Will it be viewed negatively
    since I made it over half way through and didn't finish. I
    might return and finish it someday,but right now, I really
    want to become a teacher.
