If you are sincere, you would be an asset to the Chassidish community. Unfortunately, getting a degree is made very simple by one certain program that so many young men with the degree had alot of help from their wives in doing such as termpapers because of their minimal English.
While doing so called Sp Ed in yeshiva setting, some yungeleit are doing very well in area of having breakfast with the melamdim,talking on their cell phones and leaving their students alone while running off to Mincha!!!…..and the kid(s) children run around, without structure and are doing nothing.
Many yeshivos only want men therapists in the yeshiva,true.Too many children previously being serviced by patient women are not reaching their goals.
Yes, have been in the field for many years and do so per diem currently.
So, if your middle name is EMES, go for it. Yes, you will have to work hard, be patient and be prepared with new activities and realize that each child is an individual and you can’t come in with one plan that will be good for all. Hatzlocha Rabba!!! You will have to work many hours to take home a decent pay to support your family. Good Luck!
