[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My friend who teaches a foreign language, with specific credentials to teach it from that country, cannot be hired under new MCPS rules because she needs US credentials. Even though she's an excellent teacher and they're short on that particular foreign language instruction! [/quote] Why are they doing this? I thought they were short teachers. Other counties are relaxing their rules to hire people. Why isn't MCPS?[/quote] PP you replied to. Well, I am all for requiring rigorous degrees. But when it comes to foreign language, many native speakers have diplomas from their own countries and it's a burden on them to navigate the US system, which they are not necessarily familiar with, only to add US credentials that are usually not as rigorous as their original ones. So I feel MCPS needs to make an exception for foreign language instructors. Otherwise they might end up drawing from a smaller pool of non-native speakers.[/quote]
