AWFUL. AWFUL. AWFUL. I was told that I cannot receive a temporary certificate therefore I have been getting paid on substitute hourly pay for the last three months, while I should have been getting paid salary on a temporary certificate. Not only did they miss advise me, but when I called to check on the status of my certification they told me that it would take no longer than eight weeks, so once it hit the eight week mark I called to find out where my certification was and they told me that it was sitting a lot longer than it should ve been and they were truly sorry because it should ve been to me or while ago. That is the difference between me having to pick up extra jobs because I can t afford my bills while I have a full time job and college degree, just so the state of Florida could save themselves money. And now that I have finally received my temporary certificate, my certification says I am not eligible For ESOL which I have fully graduated with my creditibility to teach ESOL, As my school goes above and beyond with this certification. So now I need to go further out of my way to figure out why I was not credited with what I m supposed to be credited with. This truly makes me not want to be a teacher because of how pathetic the Florida Department of Education is
