As I begin to connect, or reconnect, with the online cohort, I realized that I am the only unlicensed teacher. Among by cohort are:
2nd year teacher
Junior High Media Specialist
Media Specialist/Communications teacher
Media Specialist K-8
Former teacher/current substitute
Media Specialist - High School
English Teacher - High School
I worry that I am taking a huge risk. I have no guarantee of a teaching position, just a passion for what I would teach. I know that at least one position will open in my district, but, of course, can't be guaranteed anything. It will be difficult to pay the student loans if I keep my current position of part-time library aide and part-time administrative assistant at the police station. This is what happens when one dithers.
However, I also realize that I have amazing connections with all sorts of different experiences from which I can learn. Hopefully, I will take proper advantage of this and not succumb to doubt.
