LEARN ABOUT THE JOURNEY TO BECOMING A TEACHER WITH TEACHWA.ORG
There are many ways to become a teacher in Washington, and the pathway you choose will depend on your educational background, learning preferences, and professional experience.
"I would say my favorite part about being a teacher is that I feel like I'm a really good role model for kids. Here at my school, we have a really high Latino population. And so for me, it's really important for my students to be able to see themselves in roles as I have as a teacher."
Angelica Garcia, Mount Vernon teacher
