And since I am an experienced teacher with a MA in History...I at least will have a good-paying position compared to the national average (although relatively poor compared to other MAs). Plus I've noticed the old mojo is coming back - I might be a really effective teacher if this continues. Teaching without the mojo is like Austin Powers without his...<BR/><BR/>But I have <I>much</I> better teeth and a lot less chest hair! :PLarry Nolenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16001420558511460998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8068873.post-47835707320672601752008-06-25T18:24:00.000-05:002008-06-25T18:24:00.000-05:00Best of luck with finding a job.
