I need field experience if I want to go into teaching, do I just find a job at any day care?

You can volunteer to teach a class and/or be a substitute teacher. I'm not sure where you are from but more than likely you'll need a teaching certificate.

it depends what age you are looking to teach...day care is a good start but not really in the education field...the requirements are very different, it will help you in early chilhood procedures and expectations but not get you a teaching job...apply as a sub in as many schools as you can...try to get a gig as a building sub, where you work in the same building every day...you can;t get hired until you complete a certification program where you do at least 1 semester of student teaching...good luck...

teaching isn't really related to day care. I would go for a tutoring position. Depending on how old you are, high school and college students can tutor elementary kids after school one on one. Thats probably your best bet. You won't get paid because you are not licensed but to get experience it's a good way tot start.

If you can I would advise that you try and find teachers aid job. They will be the ones getting hired, not the subs. They will know you better, also your work ethics and how reliable you are for taking orders. If not that then a private school were teachers work for less
