Hello all! I want to become a special educator and my guidance counselor told me I should have another concentration as well, being able to teach other classes to I guess. With that being said, I think I would wanna do PE/Health. I’m super passionate about drug prevention and that could also transfer into teaching adapted PE.
I was just wondering if that was not only possible but how the workload would be. Thanks!
I’m not sure about the college workload; I teach math.
But in terms of the job search: I’m not sure that Phys Ed would make much of a difference. Phys Ed teachers are a dime a dozen; everyone who every hoped to go Pro in any sport pretty much majored in Phys Ed.
It is something to ask a college advisor about.
I think that what your guidance counselor was talking about was probably something that would help with that SpEd degree-- say, literacy.
