Asked by thunderbomb90
Has anyone here performed any type of student teaching? I planning on being a mid and high school science/math teacher. I heard my student teaching lasts 14 weeks and apparently you can't (or won't have time to have) have a part time job while doing this? It totally fine with that if that's true, but I just making sure it's really true. (That you don't have time for any other job, ect.) I understand and it's probably a good idea so you can concentrate on the lesson plans. Do you all just save up in advance before doing this? Any type of job in particular you can do on the side- online job ect that any of you have done? I'm in New Mexico and I am doing Western Governors University Online.

Ok, this isn't an answer, but a question, that maybe you can answer in an extra comment (please!) How have you liked your WGU experience? Were they very good in helping you find a place to student teach? I'm thinking about them, but I want my degree to be accepted.
