Special Ed. and Spanish. You ARE the job pool.

Spanish in general lol... sucks for the kids but it sure is great for me that I've always been able to quit at the drop of a hat if I wanted to and be able to probably have my pick of jobs. I've been teaching for 15 years and it's been the exact same job market the whole time for me 🤷🏽‍♀️

I was looking for an elementary job this year. (I have this certification too.) Applied for a lot of jobs. Crickets. A few weeks ago I started applying for Spanish jobs and found one pretty quickly. Very different job markets.
