Specialized Teaching in Hawaii
Specialized teaching schools prepare students for one of many career options in education. Specialized teaching focuses on specific areas of content and populations of learners. Students who are interested in specialized teaching teach subjects such as reading, language arts, writing, math and science. They also work with students with disabilities, ESL students and adult learners. Specialized teaching careers are expected to grow due to the pending retirement of thousands of teachers across the country including Hawaii. Several job vacancies will come about as these teachers leave their classrooms behind. There are funding concerns for the public education sector that could slow growth as many states are cutting back spending on public programs.
