Well I decided I want to become a teacher, I finally coped with doing something I have a passion for and not pursuing a degree where I will not love my work.
Anyways I want to teach history, and I've been doing a lot of research and I still don't know what pathway to take.
I heard you can major in any kind of social science (exolitical science) and pass credential exams to be certified to teach history.
Another is just simply majoring in history.
Also I heard majoring in education may be an option as well but my sister who is an elementary teacher said if I do so I'll get stuck teaching elementary.
I need to declare a major soon, with my goal being that of a high school history teacher.
Before people tell me that I'm going to be poor or whatever, I'd rather love my job then be miserable at work for a larger paycheck.
