Hello! I live in NYC. I have a B.A. in Sociology with a minor in Elementary Education. I also have an A.A. in Liberal Arts and Sciences. Both degrees from CUNY. I graduated college a long time ago (1994). For years, I have been seeking a job as a GED Teacher but to no avail.

I contacted the New York State Department of Education and they give me the run around everytime. I have the skills to teach the GED exam and to help students reach academic success. I just don't know what to do in order to get hired as a GED Teacher. What are the requirements?

Do I need an M.A. in Secondary Education in order to reach this goal? What do you suggest? I am 45 years old and would like to reach this goal of becoming a GED Teacher before age 50. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
gednj Hi. I am a GED teacher in NJ. I teach for a community college -- got the job simply by calling them and expressing my interest, but I may have gotten lucky.

I would call all the community colleges,...See More
