I just got a phone call from another district today. This one is rural, only 3 schools in the entire district, fewer places to live nearby, and pays slightly less. The plus side it is 10th grade.
6th really isn't that different than 7th, so if you enjoyed that, you should be fine. Also, there is generally a good chance to move grades/teaching assignments once you are part of the school so if it's a MS then odds are good you won't be teaching just 6th for long if you don't want to.
Unless you have your heart really set on teaching high school, or think that you would hate living in the rural area, then it's pretty much a toss up. You spend a huge part of your life in the classroom so if you can't decide, then maybe that let be the deciding element.
We've lived and taught in 5 different countries now (and I've taught all grades and ages as a SPED teacher) and you generally adjust pretty quickly to a different age/grade and new location pretty quickly, if you go into it with the right mindset.
I don't know if it's the right place to post this but I'm going to do it anyway.
I'm currently studying english in my country in order to become an english teacher, but the thing is that I would prefer to be a french teacher abroad, like maybe in Canada for example. Would someone have any advice or tips as to what I should do to make that dream come true ?
Thanks a lot to everyone and I wish you a great night/day !
I am sooooo done with the sun. I pour on the sunscreen but between cycling and the pool, I am a deep bronze already. I have always tanned so easily but with the dangers of sun, I am not sure how to avoid it and stay active.
