My daughter is only a sophmore in college but it seems to make sense for her to try and figure out what the job market is before preparing for something. She loves history and little kids but supposedly the market for social studies teachers and elementary ed is totally saturated. We have a new history teacher at my son’s middle school and she said they had 400 people apply for her job. Why they picked her is another story…

The nice suburban schools where we live, where the wages are really good, probably don’t have many parents who only speak Spanish but the ESOL sounds like a good idea anyway.
