There is always a need for science teachers! Most states have some form of "alternative certification" for those people with the content knowledge but not with a formal teaching background.
Usually one has to pass a content area test and take some classes on the basics of teaching-classroom management and such.
How far west are you planning to go? I'm about as far west (and north) as one can get without going to Canada-give or take about an hour (depending on border wait times). If you think you might end up in our neck of the woods, Queenie and I will show you the town.

Remarried my FXH 25 years to the day of our first M. God is so good-and sometimes so unexpected!
One of these days, I would love to get to the PNW. Queenie alone is a good reason
I am moving to AZ. I have done some reading on the certification process and know they really need science teachers. It's the whole TEACHING part that I'm not versed in. I have trained folks in the lab, and talked theory with them (Biochemistry) to help them better understand why they do what they do. Many people say I'm a 'good teacher'. I think I'm a good TRAINER. It's a little different.

Any closer to coming to the PNW? Actually, JT and Looking4 are up here as well. Maybe it would even coincide with Chai coming out here or possibly even Bugs taking a trip. Seattle would NEVER be the same.
How are you doing? Have you moved yet?
I miss you....
BS 52, FWH 53, Married 1-1-84 D-day 5-14-07, WH moved in with OW Plan A 9 months, DARK Plan B 3-17-08 until 3-2-09 WH and OW broke up 1-09 Started over 7-09
I did the long drive out last week, arriving in AZ on Wednesday. It's been another few days of getting settled, and buying some things to make it a home. DS arrived yesterday and I registered him for school today, because he starts next Monday. WHEW!!! Now I'm just dealing with moments here and there of homesickness. Time time time.
I'm happy to get moving in a new direction, though, so it's just growing pains. AZman and son are being just great! Gotta get my stuff out of storage and into the house, so I'll be pretty busy this week. Once that's done, I will move on to career...or just something to do for a while during my career search I plan on talking to DS's teacher next Monday to find out if they need any help in the classroom.
I like the idea of teaching, but still don't know if it's the right thing for me to do. I miss the lab, I like it. I'll figure it out.

You are the model of personal recovery girlfriend. So happy for you.
Well, I dunno 'bout that, but it's good to be moving in some direction other than circles. It's very scary to be COMPLETELY on my own. I have always lived close to family, so this is new for me. It's okay though. Nothing like a bit of fear to get that heart beating... even if it's just hyperventilation. Haha.
It's funny. I got online today just hoping to see a familiar poster, and there you were, and then I found my thread with Mrs. Queenie calling me out, and it felt like a little bit of home. Thanks

A cylinder failed on a 55� forestry aerial lift they were testing a few weeks ago at our shop (you know the kind that tow woodchippers). The platform came through the shop roof about 40� from my office door. Thankfully no one was in the platform or under the roof.
But the crash was so sudden and so loud I nearly glistened in my pants.
HI SL!!!!! Welcome back to the West! Let me know if you guys ever want to meet up in Santa Fe. They probably have a place or two with real good margaritas.
Testosterone boys! Testosterone! It ain’t just for nose, ear and back hair anymore!
You should have seen the kid (Kid! He�s a former Iraq veteran marine) who was running the lift from the bed of the truck when the cylinder let go. He described the event as a multi-orifice leak check test.

You should get some feminine protection for that
I wonder if the Venezuelan Bikini Team does security work?
