Hi,
Im a 29 yr old mother of 4. I need information on Adult Continueing education. I didnt finish High School or receive my G.E.D. Im now in an accredited school working on my high school diploma. I have been living across seas for almost 11 yrs now. I have always wanted to become a teacher, i have been teaching ESL students for almost 5 yrs now. I have read up on all forms of educational books, curricula and the like. I was married young and didnt accomplish any of my goals. Now that im divorced i want to know what kind of programs are out their, scholarships, grants and the like. What avenues should i take and any other helpful information will be highly appreciated. My dream is to do this i just dont know where to start. HELP ME PLEASE!!!!!!!!!

Will you be returning to the US to study? Or remaining overseas?

I know that a lot of US universities have special programs for Continuing Education. You just need to fill out an application and enroll. Most do not require you to go through the admission process unless you plan on matriculating. Most CE programs are non-matriculating. Just check out the universities near you. Call up the school's mainline and asked to be directed to their continuing education program.

On the other hand, I see what you want to teach, so you may have to complete your HS studies, and get your diploma/GED and apply to colleges for teacher certification. I believe most teachers do need to have their bachelor degrees and maybe some teachers out there can correct me, but even a Masters degree.

Hope this can provide some help. Good Luck!
