So what are some reasons I can tell them to make them believe that the school wants me to be a substitute teacher for a while until I can get teacher's assistant? Please help me.

I am currently a substitute teacher for a district and don't understand how the politics work. I mean, I complete everything according to sub plans. I am friendly and smile and stuff. I even help students with assignments. What gives? I would like a steady gig with a particular school instead of fighting for jobs every week. How can I earn more requests from secretaries?

What kind of questions might I be asked? Should I ask him questions?

When I start working on my Bachelor's degree, I would like to work as a substitute teacher just to make a few dollars on the side. If you could give me an estimate for how much they make, that would be great. If you could, tell me how much they make in the Murfreesboro and/or Tullahoma areas. I love kids and I think that it would be a fun job for me. Thanks.

I am fresh out of college, and want to be a substitute teacher until I find a more permanent position. I already took and passed the state basic educational skills test so I'm ready to go. I just don't know what I'm supposed to put on my resume. I have a language degree, and I worked at a grocery store for a long time, and also do some work on ebay, but what does that have anything to do with teaching?

Also, can subs work during the Summer at all?

I would really love to be a substitute teacher, and I have all of the qualifications, I just don't have the money right now, due to unemployment. If you know of any places that offer assistance with this, I would be so grateful. My sister is also running into this problem. I live in the Florida area, and she lives in Indiana. Thanks in advance.
