How do I decide which grade to teach?
#primary-education #secondary-education I'm a senior, and have decided that I want to become an educator with a masters in teaching. I've worked with children from 5 to 70, and enjoy teaching them equally. That, in fact, is my dilemma. I don't know what, and who, I want to teach. I know it will elementary, middle, or high school. I work with the different ages of kids well, and enjoy them all. I work very well with young kids, but I also take a particular pleasure in science (Especially biology), comparative politics, and US history. However, you often don't get to teach these subjects in depth at the elementary, and in some cases middle school levels. I would like to figure out sooner than later, because if I take the middle/high school route, I can do more STEM related classes that qualify me for greater scholarships.
Are there any classes that a teacher would recommend that a prospective teacher take?
I am asking because as a student we have a list of classes that we should take as education majors to graduate, but I always wonder if there are any classes that a future educator should take that is not in the set list of classes that students take. Classes that would help out even more in the classroom. #special-education #elementary-education #primary-education #being-an-elementary-teacher

Are there any good programs for primary education in any schools near me?
My sister-in-law is a primary grade teacher and she said she loves it. I have gained a heavy interest in this field, but I would like to get started on figuring out where this major is more heavily taught, and where I would get the better teachings for this topic. #primary-education
How hard is it to transfer from a community college to a four year college?
I am only a junior in high school and I am in the AVID program which focuses heavily on college. As an AVID student, we have discussed community college and I figured why not do a transfer. I am also going to be very young when I graduate so I would much rather go to a community college before I jump straight into a four year college. #primary-education
