IMDB rating: 6.20 Plot: Hollywood send-up. No-name actors are making a low-budget period drama called “Home for Purim,” when an anonymous post on the Internet suggests that one performance is Oscar-worthy. Then, two more cast members get Oscar-related press: buzz in “Variety” and appearances on TV prompt the studio executives to insist on changes in the script in anticipation of a blockbuster. Jump ahead a few months to the days before Oscar nominees are announced: just the possibility of a nomination has changed the actors’ lives. Agents, publicists, make-up artists, local celebrity reporters, and other bit players round out the backstage ensemble. Hooray for Hollywood! |

Will there be more teaching jobs in the next 4-6 years?
I really want to go into the field of teaching (prob middle school or highschool level) but the one thing that is holding me back is the lack of job opportunities. I know quite afew people that have a degree in teaching but have been stuck being subs or teachers assistants,or even working other jobs just because they cant find a job. But at the same time it seems that there are so many going to college for this.
Should I take this into big consideration or should I just go for my teaching degree and hope that I will be able to find a job once I graduate?
Also, I live in Ohio. I’m not sure how much I would be willing to move,it all depends at where I’m at in my life when I graduate.
It is hard to predict whether there will be more jobs or not. This year, because of budget problems caused by the economic crisis, laid off a lot of teachers. We also know that the school-age population is expected to decline over the next few years, so that could lead to a lower demand for teachers. What will matter will be immigration. If it continues to increase, there will be more of a need to teach those children; otherwise, many schools may find themselves with more teachers than they need.

A lot will depend upon where you live and where you are willing to live. Some parts of the country are losing population while others are gaining. There will always be a demand for good teachers, in part because the average teaching career is 5 years. It is a demanding job and in some districts a rather thankless one. But if you have a passion for it, go for it. The rewards are in your students’ success not in the pay. We need good teachers.

My school has a void of teachers in the 35-45 year range. We have some good young teachers and some great veteran teachers. The veterans are getting ready to retire, so there will be a need for young quality teachers. My advice is to do what makes you happy. I love my job and get paid very well to do it. I have only missed work on 5 days in 11 years of teaching (2 funerals, 2 wife dr appts, and rolled/flipped truck 4 times). Do what makes you happy and you will never regret it.

The latest reports from the AFT & NEA say that most likely the job situation for teachers will start opening up in 2012. There are many teachers who will be retiring and there is hope of an economic upswing that will allow teachers to be hired again. There will always be jobs for math, science and special ed teachers at the high school & junior high level.
