I am a junior in high school and have so far excelled in creative writing. I have been thinking about becoming a middle school teacher. If you are considering a career in education you have a few options in college majors. Many colleges require that you have a double major or at least select a minor if you are selecting a major in education.
Education is a common major and many colleges throughout the country offer education programs.
If you are able at your school, you can ask your counselor to set up a shadow experience in education for you. Just in case you are unfamilar, a shadow would involve you going to work with a teacher for a day. It's a great way for you to discover exactly what the career is all about.
