\"Dr.<\/a>
Dr. Grant Tedaldi, Florida teacher<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

2017 is here, and I know each New Year I make a resolution and try to follow through with positive changes in my life.\u00a0 I\u2019m not too worried about watching my diet or getting to the gym in January though, because my year actually begins in August.\u00a0 I teach, and therefore I follow a calendar that everyone may remember from being young.\u00a0 Those two summer months give me a lot more time to finalize my New Year\u2019s resolutions, but I implore those thinking that their big change this year might come with a new career, to consider how becoming a teacher may be the most impactful resolution you can possible make.<\/p>\n

Look in any newspaper here in Florida, and you\u2019re likely to read an article about our growing teacher shortage.\u00a0 With new schools being built each year and more and more teachers closing in on retirement, it\u2019s no doubt The Sunshine State is struggling to put an educator in every classroom each coming August.\u00a0 Teaching is a noble profession with exceptional benefits, and a profession that you may have considered as a career change.\u00a0 Did you know that the\u00a0Florida Department of Education<\/a> provides a pathway that can get you state certified to teach in your very own classroom in less than a year?\u00a0 It\u2019s called the American Board<\/a> and it\u2019s a way that hundreds of teachers in Florida started their careers in education\u2026 all online, from the comfort of their home.<\/p>\n

Some of the largest school districts in the country are in Florida- including Orlando (Orange), Tampa (Hillsborough), Jacksonville (Duval), Miami (Miami-Dade), Ft Lauderdale (Broward), \u00a0and Palm Beach.\u00a0 Each hire and staff hundreds of new teachers each year.<\/p>\n

Think about how your experience in the business world could translate into teaching a youngster math so that it is meaningful and relevant to their future.\u00a0 Was memorizing state capitals and teaching reading to your children a wonderful experience?\u00a0 With a comprehensive online program, you can deepen your subject knowledge and be fully certified to teach Elementary, Middle, or High School in under a year.\u00a0 The American Board has been helping certify educators for 16 years; so consider that new career you\u2019ve been thinking about for 2017 and make a resolution to make a much needed difference in young students\u2019 lives by helping to fill much needed vacancies in Florida\u2019s public schools.<\/p>\n
