Does NM count a JD as a Doctor's degree? Does mathematical economics count as a mathematics course, either outright, or depending on course description? How many credits in education would I be required to obtain in order to teach? Could I receive some sort of credit for my military experience as a trainer and a training officer? Could I receive some sort of credit for my training and education as a ski instructor, including Professional Ski Instructors Eastern Division Master Teacher Certification? Would I recieve any longevity credit for my experience as an economist?
In addition to the qualification issues, the most interesting question is where I should teach. I would prefer to be near a public university, so Albuquerque (UNM), and its suburbs, including Rio Rancho, Bernalillo, Sandia Park and Los Lunas would be possible, as well as Las Vegas (NMHU) and Las Cruces (NMSU). I would also like to have access to skiing, but all of the above would seem to be within two hours drive time from some ski area. What school systems need teachers, what disciplines are most in demand, and how difficult are their administrations to work for?
Well-organized, reliable postcard exchange in its second year needs a teacher from the Land of Enchantment. This is a fun, rewarding, and easy project that you don't want to miss!! I am originally from Albuquerque, and I don't think I can do an exchange that doesn't include NM, so please join us!

I've heard the term but don't really understand what it means. What makes a school be a core curriculum school, and what would it look like?

First, I want to thank all of the great full-time teachers for there great job education our children.

If full-time teachers want more substitutes to return to their school, they need to stop acting so hot-headed towards other substitute teachers. Because of what went on- I won't teach full time or ever send my kids to the school.
Secondly, before I explain what went on, I want to elaborate on something. Substitute teachers do not know all students as well. Substitute teachers do not know who pulls tricks and who doesn't. Subsitute teachers do not know as much about the general realm of the classroom or school as regular teachers. I fully understand that. Okay,that's why we are called substitutes.
However, it seemed that too many times in the district I subbed for certain teachers loved to point out the minor wrongs I was performed in my teaching in the class I was subbing for. (Even in front of the students) If you want us to come back and teach or send our kids to your school, don't do this. Were not in rankings like guards in a castle are, were here to teach kids education.
The school wants me back, but I'm not going to put up with other full time teachers barging into my classrooms telling me how to run things. Some teachers were great but there were a few that just wanted to yell out for hours.
That's why I've quit secondary education.
Has anyone ever been in the same boat?

I doubt military, ski instructor or longevity credit will count for anything.
I'm only familiar with Albuquerque. Leadership varies a lot from school to school. The more...See More
