You should know, however, that it will take longer, and there may be difficulties along the way. You will earn your credential more slowly because you cannot complete as many classes as a full time student. Sometimes classes are difficult to find offered at times you are available to take them. This is especially true of upper division courses. Whenever possible we offer classes at times conducive to teachers.
Student teaching is a full time, semester long commitment.
Most Health Science students are placed in either a middle school or high school for their student teaching experience. All student teachers will teach three health classes, observe one class and use one period for planning. Along with lunch, this constitites a full school day. You will ultimately be responsible for creating lessons, teaching classes and grading student work. You will observe your master teacher and other teachers in the school.
