I'm interested in getting my Reading and Literacy Added Authorization. There are so many CTC approved programs. Does anyone have any recommendations or ones to stay away from? It needs to be online. I'm looking for a good learning experience, but cost is a factor.
I am at year 25 as a public educator in California - 10 as a an elem teacher, 15 as an administrator - and I am totally burned out. 8 more years would double my pension but I don’t see how I could possibly last that long. I would love to go back to teaching if I knew I would have a manageable class and a good admin, but some of the stuff I see happening to teachers now I would not want to put myself through. I am also thinking about doing something else for a few years and give myself a break, but I’m not sure what that would be. Has anybody been in this situation? Any suggestions? I’ve got to make a change.
