[quote=Anonymous]I'm not a teacher but have a few in my family/family in-law. My impressions are: 1) Everyone wants to teach elementary school, so jobs are more scarce. But, if you are male that may be in your favor to find a spot. 2) Teaching, even at that early level, comes with many headaches about teaching to tests, scores, etc. 3) Looking for jobs at schools where "no one" wants to teach could help you get a spot - would you be at all interested in teaching underprivileged kids and/or kids with behavior issues (like not a mainstream school)? 4) My SIL has had a Masters in Education and Special Ed for nearly 3 years and has yet to find a permanent position, she has been doing various subbing and leave replacement gigs. That's in NY - maybe it's different here.[/quote]
