I'm planning to move from New Mexico to Rhode Island and/or
Mass. the summer after next. I grew up in NH and I'm
certified in both NM and NH in 7-12 Language Arts. I hear
the hiring is bleak for teachers, so I am starting to
prepare now. I'm looking to make myself as marketable as I
possible can as I hear English teachers are a dime a dozen.
Do you have any suggestions? I'm considering gaining
certification in History, do you think this will help? I'm
planning to become certified in MA, CT, and RI. I also
heavily involved in extracurricular activities at my current
school, which I love dearly. What else can I do to build
myself up to be what districts are looking for? I have
exactly a year and a half to plan before the big move.
