[quote=Anonymous]This! It will take 2 years to get a master's. Full time. And while she could work in private practice, it's harder to get benefits that way.

Is there another position within the school system that would be less taxing. I know a few folks who switched to ESOL (took a praxis) and are happy. How long have you been in the system for? Check out what it takes to be vested in the pension system before you leave. Like others have mentioned, I have heard good things about the DOD. What are your salary requirements - that could help us make recommendations. Could you maybe take a year or two leave of absence? That way you could get a less taxing job and then go back to teaching (if you want). It's been a really tough year for teachers with Covid and maybe you just need a short term break.

[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree that SLP would be worth looking into. Also look at Pearson, The College Board, or some of the other education non profits. [/quote]

SLP isn't going to work...What is she going to do about income and benefits while she gets her Master's degree and does her fellowship?[/quote][/quote]
