Hi, i am currently in my last year of college where I am studying to become a high school history teacher. Right now, I am student teaching right now in Pittsburgh, PA. I will be graduating from Duquesne University in May. Anyway, I want to continue my education, but I'm not sure which direction I want to go. I was thinking maybe getting my masters in Special Ed, because my school offers a program to get that in a year.
Anyway, if I decide not to do that, I want to move to New York City and I was wondering a few things about teaching there.
First, is it hard to find a job (which areas would be the best to look)??
Second, where is the best place to live (i have some friends in the bronx and queens - what is a decent area for a decent price with not a huge travel time)??
Third, what certifications do I need? (In PA, you need to complete the Praxis - Math, Reading, Writing, and also Citizenship.
Also, any other tips you can give me?? Thanks so much!!!
