Plans...

I have plans.

Lots of it.

But one thing that I was really confused about is when to change career. I passed the teacher's board three years ago. I am on my way to finishing my master's degree. Yet, I am still in the call center. What am I doing? That's one thing I keep on asking myself and others too. For a long time of being a customer care representative, I came to a point where I look for passion that is now long gone.

I know I can be a good teacher. And that's also I want to be. How do I start? Where? And when?

I am afraid I might have forgotten the rubrics in making a good lesson plan. Or my teaching strategies are out of date. Or my classroom management poor.

Whenever I submit a resume for a teaching position, I don't have a teaching experience that will strengthen my credentials as a teacher. I am a teacher on paper but not in experience. Surely, my resume will show a four year call center background.

There is a term for this, was it underemployment? Yes, that's the term. Working a job not in line with the course one graduated from.

So my plan this year is to save up for next year. I might go for it. Making my dream (becoming a teacher) come true. :) Pray for me.
