I am trying to figure out what test I can take to add the
TESOL endorsement to my license, (as described on the PED
website), but I can find no info on it anywhere. The NMTA
website says nothing about it. Where is said exam???
Thanks, Jesse

Jules /blockquote>

There is no test currently, but I think one will be added
soon. Right now in order to add a TESOL endorsement to your
license, you have to take the necessary classes.

There is no exam (I know they have one in some states, like
TExas, but not here). Go to the State Department of NM
website, print an application for adding endorsements to your
license, send it in with your transcripts. They will either
add the endorsement to your license and send you a new
license, or t...See More

released for the winter of 2005. It is filled with
action, romance, and intrigue, as my protagonist serves
the South as a spy in Washington, as a diplomat in England
and F...See More

Mrs. Steen was a 5th grade teacher at Sombra del Monte
Elementary in Albuquerque, during the 60's. I was wondering
if anyone remembers her, and has information. I was one of
her students, and wish I'd thought to look for her 1 or 20
years ago. It might be too late now, but I was hoping
someone knew. No o...See More

Hi, I kind of vanished from here for a while. I'm still a

Albuquerque in an attempt to get our therapist, counselor,

with us. If you can le...See More

job shortage????

by cjr

Jun 21, 2005

I am becoming frustrated with the public school system. I
have sent out numerous resumes and called prinipals and
still nothing. How does it seem fair to our students if
we aren't hiring teachers until 5 days before school
starts, or 20 days after for that matter? Does anyone
have any advice on how to ge...See More

What city are you in?
This often happens in Albuquerque--it isn't the principal's
fault though. In the spring they get a projection of how many
students the district expects the school to have and can hire
based on that. This is also influenced by who pre-registers in
the spring (even though many, many parent...See More

Thanks for all of the advice. Yes, I am in Albuquerque and it
really does seem backwards after moving here not too long
ago. I have been looking elsewhere as well, Rio Rancho,
Bernalillo, etc... All areas seem to be on the same page
right now...it's almost like a stand still. I will just have
to try to e...See More
