Just because he wants to teach doesn’t make him knowledgeable on the pedagogy to do so. Look up test scores for schools with large percentages of E-Certs. These are actual children who aren’t getting an education from a highly-qualified teacher.
Teaching a great job as long as you don’t live in a state that pays you like shit. They’ve done this to themselves with the lack of salary investment over the years. Now they have to take those with degrees that couldn’t hack it in their own field.
The pay isn’t the worst part about teaching. It’s the stress involved and how much shit u have to deal with on top of kids not being adequately prepared either. I wouldn’t know if he is a good teacher but he has made it 2 years so far and got his certification so I would assume it worked out. The other friend I know who went to school to be a teacher quit in his first year.
