Default Re: FINALLY!

I clepped out of most my literature courses and took AP english in HS and got out of all my college english requirement so I don't know much about this type of degree as I have not set foot in an English or literature course since HS...unless you count Business writing and Business communications courses...(I got a Bachelor's of Science, which involves more math/statistics courses than fine arts/english courses)...and I am just curious so don't take this the wrong way or anything..but what can you do with a BA in English? Do you have a teacher's license?

Just something to think about, I am not sure how Virginia is, but around where I live you can apply for an emergency teachers license if you have a bachelors degree at minimum and complete a small program that is relatively inexpensive when you consider the cost of an Education degree...and then you can teach high or middle school english. You have to teach in what they call "red zone" schools that have a teachers shortage...but those are easy to find...

Teaching isn't glamorous, and the pay isn't that great...but you only work 9-10 months per year and have ever Christmas and Easter off. It would be better than selling cars or clothes...and if you like sales, you could always work part time during the school year and full time in the summer to score discounts and extra $$...just a thought if you can't find the "perfect" job for your field...
