Re: Retired: Math Teacher?

I think it is great that your father wants to bring his content
knowledge and maturity to the classroom. If he does not have
very recent experience in the schools where he'd like to teach
he may want to volunteer as a tutor or mentor. Then he might
consider substitute teaching. (I know the job market is tight
even for subs but ability to control classroom behavior is
absolutely necessary to any teaching career. If he can do so as
a sub then he will probably be fine in his own classroom.)
