[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I feel like I didn't hit my stride until year 6-8. By that time many teachers are starting to get married/have kids and leave the work force indefinitely. Other veterans who stay may change schools to be closer to work or don't want to work the longer (and sometimes less paid) hours in a charter school. Teaching now a days is not what it used to be. You are subject to lots of scrutiny, you must teach to a very set curriculum (that you may not agree with) and have lots of pressure about test scores. Honestly, I would not tell my children to go into teaching. A specialty position like Speech, OT or PT, yes, but not teaching unfortunately. [/quote] Yup! I'm going back for my reading specialist degree. I also talked my DSD into changing her major- from education. I don't know any teachers who would recommend the profession to friends/family.[/quote]
