Question:
I want to major in education but I work a lot so I wanted to get my degree completely online. How can I do this?
Answer:
You can certainly pursue a degree in education online, just like so many other online degrees that are available. In fact, there are undergraduate degrees in education, master’s degrees, and doctorate degrees. Of course, the educational level you decide to look into depends on how much school you have completed already.
Because you work a lot, an online degree could indeed offer you the flexibility and autonomy you need for your lifestyle. However, be assured that any accredited and legitimate online program will be rigorous and involve hard work- so do make sure you are committed to the effort that will be demanded of you. Each state requires teachers to have a teaching certificate or licensure.
Finally, some degrees require “hands-on” experience for completion. Education is one of these careers if you are going to teach in elementary school or in a secondary school. In this case, you will need to do some student teaching, which cannot be done online. Look for an accredited online program which provides guidance with how you can obtain this valuable and necessary student teaching experience.
