I have been a para for 22years and want to transition to something else. I taught at private schools when I graduated. I feel that what I am doing in the classroom has always been unnoticed. No kind words on how hard I am working with the children. Not coming by to check on me when the teacher is gone for the remainder of the year. I just need something that pays better than a para and is enjoyable. I have a B.S degree in Early Childhood Development.
