How can I ever pay back my huge student loans?
The key to financial power lies in your credit rating. If you plan to get a home loan, save money and get better credit starting now!
I went back to college to get my Special Education teaching credential; I had to go part-time because I had to work full-time. It took me almost six years to earn it because one of my employers side-tracked me into getting a slightly different credential, which I abandoned after a year so that I could finish my original credential.
One problem is that I can never go back to teaching in the public school system out here (LAUSD) because I hated it; my school was too strict and authoritarian, overcrowded, and unsupportive of a new, middle-aged teacher. I also had a troublesome teaching aide, but because he had a strong union, my union said that I could do nothing to move him elsewhere or remove him because I lacked tenure.
Anyway, I feel that I have to stay in Graduate School as long as possible before I have to start repaying my colossal student loans.
Any suggestions besides jumping off a bridge?
How can I ever pay back my huge student loans?Any chance of moving to another district or state or maybe a private school? There are teacher shortages in many areas of the country. Special Ed teachers are needed just about everywhere. I'm sorry your first year of teaching was so horrific. What did you do before you decided to go into education and why did you decide to go into special education?
If you were able to go back into teaching, special education is a critical shortage area and as a special ed teacher you should be able to get loan forgiveness for at least a part of your loan--as long as you are teaching.
