Default VICTORY !!!

no excuse really upsetting I am sure, but perhaps her rudeness didn't stay
limited to her work, perhaps, if she weren't so rude, she wouldn't be
getting those papers, Lee, not sympathetic to rude people,...

I moved the the US in 2002, in California. When I moved in I didn't

speak
english much and had to get used to the idea of being married, living

in
a
city (San Francisco) learn to forget about earthquakes. A few months
after I
moved in I started WW and put most of my efforts on getting in shape

and
learning a new lifestyle.

Through all that I've been trying to find my way to getting my teaching
credentials, I've hit bumps at every turns, given up many times only to
turn
around and give it "one last try".

Last week I went to the University here and met with a rude lady who
pretty
much told me off and I was ready to quit again.. but I decided to push
some
more. Went back there today, met with another lady and she broke down
step
by step the things I need to do to get this done. From begining to end

I
KNOW what I need to do. So if a step doesn't work, I figure it out and
keep
going!

So by the end of september I could be subbing, and by April-May I might
have
my full credential!

Who cares how long it'll take! I'm going forward !!!

I think I'm the happiest I've been since my wedding day!

I am sooooooo glad you didn't give up. Not all of us here are like
that rude one. They live in so much fear I can almost feel sorry for
them. Well, almost.

I work at a university in SC (not a teacher) I just do monky work
(tech-support) I run into the mightier tha thou mentality all the time.
Like I said, almost. Fear is a funny thing.

Keep at it girl.

I finaly learned.. the lady was served her divorce paper about 1h before

she
saw me.. not an excuse to be unprofessional... but still.. oh well...

Also, as much as I hate money, I want a bigger home with a real

There are so many great rewards from teaching, especially the health
benefits that I assume you don't have with WW. The running around for
WW would drive me crazy. As I mentioned before I know our leaders have
to cover a huge territory and the hours for meetings are early morning
to evening 7 days a week, not that they are working all of those but I
know you have to cover for people on vacation. With a teaching job it
will be more stable over all. The state is finally more favorable
toward improving education so there should be more jobs available too.
I know our district is finally hiring more teachers.

Best of luck with your credentialing program. I was smart because I got
my BA at age 20, life credential at 21 and MA at 24 so even though I
didn't teach when my kids were young, it was easy to get back into this
after school tutoring job I began 6 years ago. I work for the school
district so I didn't have to drum up my own business.

it won't be too long..

The week before I left Quebec I was offered a permanent position (as in for
life) in a highschool teaching history.... dream job for a new teacher..

Paperwork.. paperwork paperwork!

You are just working towards getting your credential here in California
then. You should be able to get that done through Sonoma State or even
through your county office of education. I know here in San Joaquin county,
they get you in their program and you are subbing once the paperwork clears
the right channels, but you are working nearly full time while completing
your credential. Since you already have your BA, then you can get
"emergency" credentials, substitute and continue working on your official
credential. I think if you go through the county it will cost way less than
Sonoma State so you might consider that option if money is an issue.

If that was the case, then she should have excused herself for the day, to
get herself together. Not take it out on a prospective student.

I got it all clarified now, I've called in to get my appointment to get
fingerprinted to send in my Credential application (the rest is all done
already).

I got the stuff I need to study for the CBest test so I can apply to sub
(I'll have to do the test in october though, the one in august is during my
trip back home ARG can't transfer the tickets and they costed a fortune). So
end of october I should be ready for subbing. I'll be ready to be a "real
teacher" by the end of the coming school year!

Yay! It all comes in handy. I have a life credential and past the C
Best too so when my tutoring job came up, I didn't need additional
units.
