In response to my post about becoming a teacher…

I found a program!!!  It’s at North Eastern Illinois University, and it would be a Master of Arts in Teaching: Language Arts Program.  I ended up parusing the website, and contacted an advisor there.  She seems really cool, and was totally helpful.  I’ll be taking the afternoon off from work tomorrow, and will be meeting up with her to discuss how the program works…what my eligibility is with my undergrad, and all of that good stuff.

Yay!  Who even knows if I’d get accepted into grad school…but hey, this is definitely a start.  I’ll keep you all posted on how the meeting goes tomorrow.

But for now, I begin the (dreaded) application process.  Ick.

Have a good night kids!

    Good Luck! I’m in the process of switching career to teaching as well. I’m in the middle of my Master of Arts for Teaching.
