I am worried about teaching general education. I had a hell of a time during student teaching. I like this job because it's easy in the paperwork sense but I hate everything else about it. I even like most of the students but the select few make my life hell when I'm there. Which I guess it would be like anywhere. I don't know. I have no idea what else I would do.

Special ed is a good alternative because you don't have to be the lead teacher, and you can focus on tutoring one-on-one or working with small groups. Classroom management is easier because there are two of you. I work in a high school and do a lot of co-teaching, primarily in math, and it is pretty low key. I could not survive teaching anything else. Best of luck to you.
