There is a demand for qualified and
committed teachers and other men and women wanting to pursue a Texas teacher
certification. As of 1998, nearly half of the nation’s teachers were over 45,
which suggest that approximately two million teachers will be needed in the next
decade. Approximately one third of new teachers quit during their first three
years on the job, and almost half leave the profession within the first five
years.
By having a Texas teacher certification, you become part of the solution to
society's overwhelming problems. Teachers can often feel marginalized,
particularly in comparison to their educated peers who out-earn them in
corporate jobs, but it is important to remember that teachers are the
cornerstone of our society. Without effective teachers, there would be no easy
access to information that is required for each individual’s success.
How you benefit by becoming a teacher. Aside from the pride that comes from
doing such rewarding work, a Texas teacher certification has some substantial
perks, most notably, the school schedule. Teachers can use summer breaks, winter
breaks, and spring breaks to pursue other interests, such as writing, research,
art, travel, or any number of other things.
By pursuing a Texas teacher certification, you are not only making a change in
your life; you will be making a change in the lives of countless school age
children. No matter what stage you are in your life, a Texas teacher
certification will give you the opportunity to put your abilities to maximum
use. If you think you have what it takes to be a teacher, consider becoming part
of the solution. There is no such thing as being over-qualified for teaching.
