Posts: 591 (10/13/2009 7:27 PM) Reply Quote More Recent Posts	student teaching with a full time job????? Im having so much trouble right now*(trying to figure out what to do Spring semester) I have one class remaining to graduate with my early childhood degree. I will be starting nursing pre-reqs soon but thats something else...lol. Anyways, I have been lookning for an afternoons position EVERYWHERE so I could still be full-time but there is NOTHING!! So, should I put student teaching on the back burner, yet again, and just take some pre-req courses for nursing at night until Im able to student teach????? UGHHH im sooo sick of thinking about all of this!!!

She worked nights/weekends at a bar!

We need at least fourteen hours a week to get the two hundred ten by the end of the semester. And we only have to do one activity a week and one take over week. Honestly I think it should be harder but GOTDAMN I can't even figure out how im going to do this!! LOL

Not only did I have other classes to take, but add the student teaching hours and work, no way. That's why I had to take a break from my part time job when I was student teaching, cause I would have been way too overwhelmed and exhausted.

However you will be exhausted.

So i've been looking for anything and haven't found SHIT. So I keep thinking well should I put it off until i can find a job and just do prenursing classes until then....

It understand the commitment and I could work part time, which I guess I should have said. I only have to worry about one activity plan a week(simple). I guess my worry is more if I will find a job. I can't just not work!

Then towards the end of the semester we "take over" and do everything! This is why im thinking of another career- nursing! Im currently an infant/toddler teacher, and I admit that I have learned alot but Im not sure if I would feel ready for my own prek class!!

When you get to the point of taking nursing courses that require a clinical with them, the instructors are not going to accomodate your schedule when it comes to clinicals. And pretty much most nursing clinicals start at 6, 6:30 am and then others are late afternoon till the early evening.
