I need job advice- help please!?

I'm 22 and graduated from college in May. I have a history degree and a 9-12 social studies licensure. Before graduation I began looking for teaching jobs. I didn't get one by time school started in August. After graduation, I went back to my summer job that I'd had throughout college- working at a bank as a teller. Once school started and I realized that I probably wouldn't get a full-time teaching job very easily, I went part-time at the bank and began tutoring at Sylvan Learning Center and substituting at a local community college.





This is my problem...I barely get any hours at Sylvan any more and I've only actually subbed a handful of classes. I'm not making very much money because those two jobs are so inconsistent and my job at the bank is only part time. I feel like I need to continue tutoring and subbing to add experience to my resume. But, it doesn't really feel like it's worth the frustration. Does anybody have any advice for me? Is there anything else I could do to better my situation?





Also, I am planning on taking Praxis II in March to add middle school social studies to my teaching licensure, so that I can have more opportunities to find a job.I need job advice- help please!?
Oh I am in the same boat as you. I have a elementary degree and have a full time job since i graduated four years ago. Even with all my subbing experience the best I have done is a full time Title I aide. Many states have teacher suprluses right now, and that coupled with cutbacks in funding make it hard to find jobs.





Getting your middle school lisence is a good idea as it will expand your marketability. If there are any other subjects you are interested in, consider going back to get certified in those. Math and Science teachers are usually still in high demand, even if states that have surpluses. Special education is also a good field. Many colleges have accelerated programs that you can get licenced in a year or so, so shop around and see what you can find





If you are able and willing to move, many states have teacher shortages, and you may be able to find something there - like the Carolinas, Florida, and Georgia.





Also consider working as an aide, if you can find a position as one with full time or lots of hours. The pay is usually not great, but it is great on a resume.





Good luck to you!I need job advice- help please!?
