[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would you be less stressed if you worked with fewer students? Perhaps you could be a Title I math teacher, a school librarian or transition to special ed.

There is some work in nonprofits but I don't know that your salary expectation is realistic.

Another option might be to create a private business: teach teachers, sell your materials, teach higher level math or SAT math prep.

Op cannot transition to being a librarian. Those jobs are in high demand and require a degree in library sciences. [/quote]

All the other suggestions also require more coursework.  Special ed is it's own degree or endorsement (and sped paperwork is overwhelming).  There's very few math interventionist positions.  Reading interventionist jobs require a reading specialist degree most of the time.  And, like mentioned, being a school librarian requires a library degree (and if not, it's just a TA position with TA pay).

She said she was willing to do additional coursework - and she may get the school system to help her pay for these fields. Secondary endorsement is only 30 credits - shorter than an RN or IT degree. [/quote]
