I have a cousin who have always wanted to be a teacher ever since we were kids. She originally thought of becoming a doctor, as her parents wanted her to be one, but her love for kids and teaching prevailed. She took up Psychology to be able to earn teaching credits and still qualify for a pre-med course, to appease her parents. After graduating from college, she decided she still wanted to teach, so she went overseas to get her teaching credentials.

She didn’t want to be just a teacher, she wanted to specialize in teaching pre-school kids with special needs. That is why she took up another course, Speech Pathology, and a certification for pre-school teaching so she can work at an environment she loved. Now she is looking into getting her master’s degree. Her sister also took up the same course because they plan to build a pre-school in the future.

You too can do what you love and dream of doing. There are early childhood education degrees you can now enroll in, online! You do not need to sacrifice your current job or compromise on family time because you can study right in the comforts of your own home!
