Hi guys! I'm really interested in becoming an elementary school teacher, and I've been looking at Georgia Military College as an option. Do they offer a major or program in elementary education?
Georgia Military College predominantly offers associate degree programs. Their education degrees include an Associate of Arts in Education (A.A.). This degree can certainly prepare you for future studies in the field of elementary education. However, it's important to note that they do not specifically offer an elementary education major.
After completing your associate degree at Georgia Military College, you could transfer to a four-year institution to pursue a bachelor's degree in elementary education. Many students follow this path, and it can work quite well provided you ensure that your credits are transferable to your intended four-year college.
If you're set on teaching at the elementary level, consider schools that offer majors in this field directly from the undergraduate level. It might also be in your best interest to look for programs that offer in-classroom experience or student teaching internships, as this practical experience can be invaluable in shaping your teaching skills and getting you accustomed to an actual classroom environment.
