SO, I really enjoy teaching, especially technology and hard science. To teach in CA I'd need a certificate. I've looked at engineer to teacher programs, and at the SCCOE site, and at CalTeach, and others, and I can't find any options that aren't spend two years and take a bunch of classes to get a CA base certificate (which will then take some number of years to clear.)
Am I missing something obvious? Or I could get a job at a private school, and teach for 6 years, then spend a year or so pulling classes etc. to get the certificate.
I've taught for 2 years in classrooms plus sub time...am I missing something regarding certification?
At this rate, I might as well declare bankruptcy, get some loans, (or do it the other way around) and get a master's in education with a certificate. Preferably from either Santa Clara, thus putting me in line for religious schools, or at National Hispanic University. Or University of Phoenix. I've interviewed enough SJSU students to know I don't want that program.
