    Well I'm glad you have it figured out lol. I'll probably get a masters and teach part time university while teaching full time. But we'll see. In either case, I wish nothing but the best for you. You seem to have a good head about you so I'm sure you'll be fine.

    Yeah, here you need a Masters to teach at university part-time and a Ph.D for full-time professors.

    I want to teach secondary school students or grades 7/8. Something between ages 12 and 17 anyway.

    Hm... To be honest I haven't thought of the age range I want to teach. I had thought about teaching at college/university level but that requires at least a masters. I think I will start at the junior high and high school level to get a feel of things and move up from there. lol I know I need to think about it more that's for sure.

    I'm going to write on the side :pink_tongue: I wrote a novel and a chapter book as a kid, but being 13ish the form isn't the greatest so I never sought publication.

    What would you want to teach?

    Well that's awesome! Teaching a language sounds fun hehe. I don't think I could do it though lol Having trouble learning the one language I need to finish my associates degree. I want to teach English. Creative writing to be more specific.

    Changing majors seems to be really common :pink_tongue: I like my field, though. I'm in Honours Bachelor of Arts with Specialization in Geography (French Immersion) with an Advanced Minor in French as a Second Language. I have high proficiency in French so I skipped most classes. The "Advanced Minor" signifies that I have the same level as someone who would've completed a Major in French, but that I got to skip half the classes :pink_nod:

    I want to teach French!

    Ah! I'm working towards an education degree myself. Well if I stop at my bachelors I will be around 25. I would have been almost done had I not changed my major so many times XD

    Neat ☺ How old will you be when you finish school completely then?

    I started quite a bit late. A lot of my friends are already done university! Normally you enter at age 18 and are done by 22. I started at 22 and will be enrolled till I'm 26 + 2yrs extra for my Bachelor of Education.

    That is very interesting. They would be not to take you with that average XD
    Yes I do intend to go to a 4 year after community college. Haven't decided between the two I've chosen but it will be one of them lol

    Oh xD I wouldn't know. Here in Canada, we have colleges - technical applications, sometimes requiring a university degree - and universities - theoretical applications.

    Vet technicians go to college. Veterinarians go to university. Doctors and teachers go to university. Electricians and plumbers go to college.

    Mechanical vs. Theoretical.

    I applied to one university and got in, but that's probably because of my 95.2% average :pink_tongue: They'd be foolish not to take me!

    Do you plan on going to a different school after community college?

    Wow. That is quite a few students for one class hehe. But then again that is more like a standard college verse a community college. As far a the requirements to join, there aren't really that many. It is kinda like a foundation for bigger colleges. They do have a placement test at the school I'm going to but that is to see where you stand so they can put you in the right classes. It isn't as hard to get into as a major college I'll tell you that much XD

    oo~ What kind of requirements are there?

    One class in my university had 220 students to one teacher. That teacher had two or three TAs, though. Other classes are 20:1.

    Mainly just the size and student to teacher ratio I think. That and the cost is lower. It is a good way to get into a 4 year school without paying as much. As long as you meet the requirements to transfer.
