Extra Certifications?
Posted: Sat Sep 10, 2011 8:53 am
Hi everyone,
I live in a state where I can add extra certifications to my already existing one (in ESOL) by taking and passing the Praxis II exam in that area.
I have been teaching elementary ESOL and I'm considering taking the tests to add an elementary certification or maybe an English 6-12 certification.
My question is, would this be helpful? All of my teaching experience would be in ESOL, so would having extra certification areas be helpful at all?
I should mention that I'm part of a teaching couple. My husband is certified in Spec ed., art, and elementary and his teaching experience is in spec ed. and art.
Thanks!
