by Arizona

Nov 18, 2009

Hi, I have never been there before. What is the job outlook for high school English teachers? Also, input about Crofton, Annapolis, Denton, in GENERAL, would be greatly appreciated.

Also, how hard or easy is it to become certified in MD if I am already certified here in Arizona?

Thanks much, AZ

Just Me.. I find these chatboards very negative. Most of the responses for a few of the states I have looked into have advised posters looking for jobs, that there r none. I know that there are freezes in some states but not in all categories. Maryland, as far as I know has NO freezes. Many of the counties aren't hiring as many teachers but they are hiring. ...See MoreI find these chatboards very negative. Most of the responses for a few of the states I have looked into have advised posters looking for jobs, that there r none. I know that there are freezes in some states but not in all categories. Maryland, as far as I know has NO freezes. Many of the counties aren't hiring as many teachers but they are hiring. General Ed has limited positions but usually Special Ed/Needs,Science, Math and ESL/ESOL usually has more positions available. These chatboards seem to have posters who r already employed or possibly looking for work themselves and want to discourage others. And ask yourselves-y would school districts have job fairs?
