I am currently living in Florida and completing a dual track program at the University of South Florida. Upon completion I will have my MA, initial elementary education certification, and an ESOL endorsement. My BA is in communications, so teaching will be a career change for me.

As far as other relocation advice goes, I am originally from a small town in NJ, so I am accustomed to the cold and snow, I would just like to know what to expect in terms of lifestyle, teacher's benefits, and cost of living. I am planning on moving back up north in approximately two years and hopefully the economic situation will be starting to improve at that point. Thanks in advance for any info!
