I'm 29, and an English professor at a major state university on the east coast.
I worked as a middle school humanities teacher for six years, taking advantage of my BA in English and history with a teaching endorsement, going on to earn masters degrees in reading and children's literature, and finally a PhD. in emergent children's lit.
I'll be teaching a World lit course, a freshman comp, and two upper division courses, one in children's lit and one in adolescent lit, and, I just found out in my e-mail last week, supervising six student teachers.
I've taught college courses before, but just now started doing it full time, or actually will next week. It's both an exciting and scary time for me.
