depends on the teaching position and what subject you’re hgoing to teach. if you have skills in foreign languages, you could teach in companies that need it, and sometimes they pay us a lot. It’s better if you represent yourself, be your own boss.

There seems to be a great need for teachers, now and in the future. My sister in-law was a teacher of sorts, she worked for a local school district for awhile, and was later laid off because of budget reasons. She has since found another teaching job, and obtained her master’s in education to make her an even better candidate and teacher. Some school districts are better than others, and some are better at job security overall than others, but if you were to get laid off, you should certainly find another job somewhere else. Overall I would say teaching is a good, and rewarding to career, because you help to provide a path in a students future. Think about it, you pave the way for the future CEO’s, doctors, lawyers, astronauts..etc to learn and get a good education.

Teaching special education populations has a better job security than general education jobs. Sped is on the rise and it is better to get certified in sped because there are more jobs out there to choose from. You could teach in a resource room or co-teach with a gen ed teacher, or you could work with severe students. Lots to choose from. Lots of paperwork, data collection etc. but very rewarding. you have to be a special person to be a teacher. dont do it for the money…do it because you love it!

In some areas, it can take years to get your first full-time teaching job. It depends on what you teach.

If you’re willing to move, you would have no problem getting a job (unless there is something seriously wrong with you that would make a school not want to hire you!)

Once you’re in for a few years, if you don’t get RIF’d, you have excellent job security. The last one hired is the first one let go when budgets get tight.

Teaching, though not a highly paid profession does have a lot to recommend it in terms of job security. Most teachers are pretty much guaranteed employment afetr the frist three to five years.

Teaching is a noble profession and you should be commended for thinking about it. There is always a need for teachers, therefore, you would have a job.
