Transitioning from an avid tutor position into a Substitute IA position was pretty seem less filled out the applications and the teachers I worked with as an avid tutor wrote recommendations for me. Ended up being hired after a month, after drug screening, physical, and background check. For a permanent position establishing a network is key with various sites being worked at. Got my first permanent position at Mar Vista Academy questions vary on the type of classroom the applicant will be working in.
