Trying to be a preschool teacher

I just completed 12 units of early childhood education credit from a local community college. Even though I got straight A for four courses I took last semester, I cannot be cheerful at all. It is not easy to land a job. Every school requests some kind of previous teaching or childcare experience, which I have none. I have to continue volunteering and see if some preschools would consider my volunteer work as experience. It is depressing and stressful to search for jobs.

It's pretty challenging to get the first job as you'll be competing with people that already have some experience. But I hope somebody is willing to see the potential.

Hi Antero, Long time, no see. Thank you for coming by and the encouragement. Although I don't like competition, I will have to try my best to stand out among others to get a job. Hopefully, the child development field is not too competitive. Happy 2009!!
