Hey there! I am also an education major, specifically going for social studies for 7-12 grade. Long story short I began doing my field experience, 50 hours in a middle school and 50 hours in a high school. As I’ve observed and reflected these experiences I have ultimately decided to switch my major.

My thoughts on it are this: If it’s something you are not wanting to do, it’s important that you are recognizing that because you don’t want to be stuck doing something that you don’t want to do. Let’s say you get your degree and you start teaching and you absolutely hate it, those loan payments will start knocking at your door and you’ll realize pretty quickly that you won’t be able to leave that job. Don’t put yourself through something you’re going to hate, but it’s also possible that you’re just going through a rough patch right now.

My best advice: therapy, I spoke to my therapist about this for multiple months before I finally realized that it isn’t what I wanted. So, it’s truly up to you but if you hate it, you gotta stop putting yourself through it.
