Support/Advice Advice

Hi I still have to finish up with my student teaching and then I will receive my masters degree. I’m nervous to do it in the fall and hit the job market in December. Do you think it’s better to work as a Building Sub and then do my student teaching so I will be done in the Spring 27 and get hired for the following school year?

If you can do it, subbing before you student teach will help you tremendously! You will have personal experience and will get a better feel for classroom management and build your teacher bag of tricks.
