Everywhere in Florida is just as bad. I would run away fast!

I was at a pretty good one that got closed because of the company running it.
I have to have the Subject Area Exam to get my bachelors degree in my hand. I completed my Early Childhood Education program in December of 2015. I cannot pass the Developmental Knowledge portion of the Subject Area Exam. I have tried EVERYTHING. I have taken the portion 5 times and I have studied literally everything. Any advice?

I am attempting to enroll in an online masters program to earn a masters in education in reading. I am strongly considering Arkansas State University. Has anyone earned a masters in education from this school, and was it accepted by fldoe for reading certification?
I am looking to relocate in Florida because my husband may have a job offer. I currently teach in Canada and have a Master's degree in education. Does anyone know if I'll be able to teach in Florida and what steps I need to take to do this? Thanks in advance!
Wow. This is how false information is spread. You cannot and I repeat, cannot teach in Florida with just a high school diploma. Yes, just with a college degree for a limited time - maximum 3 years and in most cases only 1 year, because you have to pass the GKT within the first years of the temporary certification.

For our Canadian friend, usually a foreign degree needs to be evaluated. That is usually your first step. After it is evaluated then you can send it in to FDOE and they will review it and tell you the subject area you can teach. They will also inform you of the addition steps you need to follow. However, you will have to make sure that you take care of your immigration issue.
I was wondering if anyone can help guide me here. I have taken the pre-k to 3 grade primary certification exam twice already and pass any of the sections. what materials should i use and where can I find questions that are on the exam.
Something is really up with Florida and in some places. But I would definitely complete my certifications and run away from Florida in a heartbeat. It's getting crazy over here. Can you please cite your source if that's okay?
After receiving the Statement of Status Eligibility (SOE) for teaching MAthematics (6-12), I want to know what are the chances of getting a teaching position without any previous teaching experience. I also want to know if there are there any training programs or courses I shloud have taken before applying on teaching postion?
"Your grades are middle school...very difficult for a new >> teacher....I suggest you find a different job." is this person serious?
Hopefully you didnt' actually listen to that person, bc I am getting really tired of ignorant and unhelpful people posting ignorant and unhelpful comments. Its the risk you take going online asking questions though I guess :( Go on teachers-teachers.com and sign up for an account. You can browse 100s and 100s of jobs in FL. Whether you are new teacher or not does not reall matter, what will matter is where you hope to be teaching. FL has like 70 counties, each running things differently. You must narrow down a few areas, visit those areas and fully research your possibilities. Schools are typically very receptive and willing to at least interview you. Job fairs are big in FL as well, sometimes they're a waste sometimes theyre great. Try them out. You will get something. Math is highly demanded, if not in the public schools than at least in the charter schools.

I'd suggest complete your certification requirements, teach for a bit just to get temporary cert, pass the ftce exams and move the hell out of florida! If you're on alternative route like me, do the same things and go somewhere else otherwise if you end up in a really bad C title 1 school, you'll get effd up for sure. Wise-up then run as fast as you can! I've learned the hard way!
