Lone Star College's Alternative Teacher Certification (ATC) Program takes people who already have their bachelor's degrees and gives them the necessary tools and training to become certified educators.
In fact, one of the ATC students, Joshua Perez, who graduated with a degree in Kinesiology from Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi, was able to use his work experience to prepare him for his first year as an educator at Humble ISD teaching 6th-grade science.
"In previous roles, I was tasked to teach and lead others, which developed my passion to coach children and make positive impacts," Perez told LSC in an interview. "Becoming an educator allows me to blend those ideals to make lasting connections with students."Perez enrolled in the program in 2021 and is expected to earn his teaching certificate in May, but was recently the recipient of the ATC's "Rookie of the Year" award.
"Utilizing my previous experience coupled with learning the material and practicing it in the classroom has greatly prepared me to embark into the teaching world," said Perez. "My goal is to make science fun for my students. Hopefully, I can start Westlake's first Science Fair next year."
