My Graduate Diploma!
Master of Arts in Teaching!I am officially done with school! No more teachers, no more books! This was a very intense program with lots and lots of papers, studying, reading, lectures and collaboration with colleagues. During this program, I was able to teach lessons to second, fourth and fifth graders, ending with my student teaching in first grade. It was a great program and I am very thankful that I was able to complete it (despite mono) and even more thankful that it is over! I must say that it is nice to not have to write papers and have mandatory reading anymore!
In other news...
I got a job! Before you get too excited, it is not a teaching job. I have been hired as a Teacher Assistant for 3rd and 4th grade. It has been difficult finding a full-time teaching job during this time of the year and this allows me an 'in' with the school system. The Assistant Principal sees that as a great opportunity to get my foot in the door and is hopeful that he can help me get a teaching job in the future.
In all, I have applied for around 30+ jobs. Justin and I have been praying for the Lord to open the right doors and close all the wrong ones. This is one door that He has opened, and I am very thankful. This job will help cure my boredom, give me more experience in the classroom, and provide a little more income. Another answer to prayer is that this job provides benefits! Praise the Lord! He has been good to us lately and I am so grateful for all the prayers that He has answered. Although we are still praying for a door to open in terms of teaching next year, I trust that the Lord has something great planned for me!
I have orientation on Monday and start on Tuesday! So if my blogging slows down a bit, it is because I am now employed full-time!
