I'm interested in a career change. I graduated college three years ago with a BBA in Marketing. I minored in fashion merchandising. I am currently working as an Assistant Store Manager for a department store. Although the money is good, I am not always happy in my job or in my field. I'd like to do something rewarding.
I've done some soul searching, and I've decided I'd like to become a high school teacher. I want to teach social studies, history, or economics. My questions are:
About how many more courses would I have to go back to school for? I graduated with 137 credits, and all of my gen eds done. I guess what I'm asking is, how many credits are in a secondary education major?
I'm hoping I could achieve my goal by going to school part time. How long would this take?
In the states of Michigan and Indiana, is there any alternative to a full semester of student teaching?
Thank you in advance for any advice that you may have.
