How do I best prepare myself for after graduation, for when I have to go out and be a "real adult"?
I am currently a Junior Special Education major at Texas A&M and the end of my college career is quickly approaching and I feel wholly unprepared! I am excited about the next step, but it feels so daunting and it feels like I am about to be thrown in with the sharks.
why don't teachers like teaching anymore/ leaving teaching ?
I am 16 and plan on becoming a teacher but I'm having second thoughts. I always wanted to become a teacher and I didn't really care about the pay yeah its not the best but If I like the job then that's all that matters but everywhere I go I see negative things about teaching and people saying that they regret becoming a teacher. so if you are a teacher please be honest tell me if its as bad as they say it is and disprove it because I am out of options and I wouldn't know what else to do.
What do I do if I am not doing well in my classes because my teachers are giving too much work?
Yes, I get it, I'm a Junior, but it is way too much for me because I have things out of school going on and it is just a lot to think about when I have things going on outside of school. At my school, we have this thing called Advisory where we take a period in our day to work on assignments, but that isn't enough for me because when I get home, I don't like doing work at home because all I want to do is relax after school and I know it's stupid, but I honestly can't help it. #$500scholarship

Looking into the fields of electricians, electrical engineers, and/or teachers (wanting to teach mathematics, so any math teachers of any kind are more then welcome)...feel free to message me.
My first name is said like president Reagan but spelled differently. I'm a graduate from during the 2020 pandemic. I'm a black female who also has mild autism, and I'm also Muslim in the Islamic faith (I honestly hope there is very little discrimination but just in case I'm putting honest facts so they can just rule me out first so I don't awkwardly have to myself). I'm just now finally during the last year have been becoming more serious in the type of career I want. Any information or advice i can get would be greatly appreciated. I only have my diploma and 2 years experience working at McDonald's, and am also now enrolled into job corps online program and waiting to go up to campus. I have many questions for all these careers of course, so just thought it was easier to talk to someone first than listing them all here. Even if you don't currently work in theses field, or have in past, or even know someone who has, still feel free to message me. My grandfather is an electrician who has been a main role model all my life and i loved watching and helping him...I'm very good when it comes to science, and even better when it involves math or using my hands. He suggested i also look into electrical engineering as well because he said knowing my strengths and limitations, he thinks it would be a great career for me since it requires skills he said he knows I have. I also always wanted to be a teacher since the first grade (still have my career project art to prove it lol). I'm great with kids of almost all ages and recently starting tutoring also. One father paid me $1000 in CASH, for teaching his 13 yro daughter math in 4 days...she passed and graduated a week later. Would love to hear from someone, and very open minded to any and all info i can get. TYIA #education #teaching #teachers #career #math #electrical #electricians #jobcorps #engineers #construction
What's it like to be in Career Village?
I have #autism. My life was very rough with it. I was struggling in #school all these years because I mad some of my #teachers mad in the past. All I want is to #graduate and go to #college so that I can get a #job. I have my #parents to support me. I sometimes like to dabble in #arts-and-crafts. When I enter college, I would like to enroll in #STEM. I know it may be hard, but I hope that when I #graduate, I would have the talent in a few #technology jobs like computer science.
What are the challenges of being an ESL teacher?
I am currently studying education and one of my certification tracks is ESL. I am highly interested in being an ESL teacher, especially because I am an international student and also had the experience of being an English Learner. However, my fear is my performance as a teacher in the future because, although I am proficient, English is not my first language. #ESL #Education #Teaching #Teachers #JULY #JULY20 #teacher #student
