[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A BA in education is worth very little. One way you could lean into it though is tutoring. You could also consider entry-level admin jobs with the gov that require nothing more than a BA, but they are hard to get if you don't have veteran status. Think about returning to school to get an advanced degree or learn new skills for a career change. [/quote]

Gee thanks :(

I hope I am valued more than my degree. I am smart and adaptable and hard working. I know I can do more than be harassed by 6 year olds (I got punched already this year) and be overworked and underpaid.

I come home and I’m a zombie. It’s not fair to my own children.[/quote]

DP.

Don’t let the post above discourage you. I think people who haven’t taught are ignorant of a teacher’s skill set. Teachers have to be strong managers, presenters, data analysts, problem solvers. They have stellar time management, organization skills, strong work ethics, etc.

Our work experience makes us very marketable in other professions. I was offered a job recently and was told “if you can manage a classroom, you can manage anything.”

You’ve got this. [/quote]
