Re: I can't find a teaching job!!!!!!!!!!
Posted by from TN, live in CT now and have the same problem... on 10/02/08
I can't believe TN is having the same problem. We were also
told of all these supposed shortages in CT-- not in my part of
the state! I even have some experience, and am back subbing
again. With all the loans I took out to go back to school to
get certified and get a master's, it is very distressing.
I also have come to realize it has a lot do with who you know.
It is frustrating. I guess we just have to keep looking and
trying, and that gets hard after a while, I am also finding.
I keep hearing NC needs teachers. Are you near that part of
the state? Sorry, I am terrible with localized geography. I
grew up in Memphis and I think you are pretty far from my part
of the state. You could always go teach there; but I admit
that is something I could never, ever do.
Good luck to you. I keep telling myself someone has to quit,
get pregnant, transfer... hopefully I will be at the right
place at the right time to get that job.
Also-- have you looked into private school?
best,
tnbelle
