Anyone substitute teach?

[sacklunch]

I'm going to BC (for an MTS) in the fall and thought about trying to substitute teach. I have briefly looked online and it seems you need a BA (check). Do you need some type of certification for this?

cheers,

It depends on the school system. Usually for a public school you don't need a specific license, just a BA. However, if you get a teaching degree, you get paid more.

Again, each system works differently, but usually you sign up, call in/check a website each morning to see if there are open jobs, accept a job and go in. Once you become a "famous" sub, you get called by teachers who know they will be gone and want you to be in charge of their class.
