[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would not recommend doing this. First, the high schools prefer to hire young teachers who are more relatable to the students and can also coach something after school. Also, you might be shocked at how poorly you will be treated by admin and parents after working in a field that is generally respected. If none of this phases you, you will have an easier time finding a position in a middle school. You could still teach civics.[/quote] High School AP here and this is not true at all. Check out iTeach or the career switcher program. While I think student teaching is extremely valuable, I have seen some great teachers come out of these programs (which you don't have to do a full semester student teaching). [/quote]
