[BeAllYouCanBe]

My wife was an English teacher in Indiana and 3 years ago we moved to California. She was able to teach on a temporary credential for two years.

When she asked about what was required to get permanently certified she found that it would take 54 more semester hours. Many of the classes required were classes that didn't exist when she was in school; Women's Studies, Black Studies and Latino/Gay/Minority studies.

It is clear they don't want you teaching unless you know the party-line.

Your wife only needs to learn to speak Spanish and concentrate on Latino Culture.

As far as teaching in California goes, she should start researching Aztlan and the "reconquista" as these subjects are the FUTURE of this "former" member of the United States of America.

My recommendation would be DON'T SEVER YOUR TIES TO INDIANA!
