She wants to teach middle school math. She is a brave soul. She did an emphasis of math for her BA, so she only needs to take a secondary math methods course to get her single subject AFTER she gets her multiple (and pass certain math CSETS). At least this is what UCI told her.
And yes, she could be placed as an elementary or a math teacher if she has both credentials. I think she is okay with that. I taught elementary for 16 years, and now have taught middle school English for the past 13 years. I’ve been happy at both levels.
This is where we are at: UCI is closer. Fullerton is cheaper. UCI is quarter system and she will get out sooner; Fullerton is semester and would give her a semester to substitute. She just can’t decide. Sigh.
Congratulations to your DD, by the way!
