Question 7 • Career Explorations A
Victor teaches science at the local high school. Sandra, the art teacher, fell sick and was going to be out of school for a couple months. Victor offered to help out and teach some of her classes during his free periods; however, the principal denied his request. Which most likely describes why Victor was denied?
Answer
A
The principal did not want to pay Victor to cover the classes.
B
Victor had a certification in science and was not certified in art.
C
The principal thought a master’s degree was needed to teach art.
D
Victor didn’t have enough time to teach the courses.
Explanation
Teachers generally need the appropriate certification or endorsement for the subject they teach. Victor was certified in science, but not in art, so the principal most likely could not assign him to teach Sandra’s art classes. Having free periods would not make him qualified to teach a different subject.
