Unless things have changed recently, you must be certified in Special Education or Students with Disabilities in order to do P3. Theoretically, you can make good money, but good luck getting those groups together. The yeshivas aren’t interested in P3’s before 2:00 PM, the blocks are typically 40 or 45 minutes, the kids don’t show up, etc. I know one frum provider who does Catholic schools in the morning and yeshivas in the afternoon. Guess which group she prefers to work with.
If you do P3 through an agency, they’ll take a cut. I’ve always done it directly, so I don’t know what the cut is, but I suspect it’s more than nominal.
Bozo, I mentioned that I’m back in school to get an additional certification in a field where there’s a shortage. It’s Teacher of the Blind and Visually Impaired. I believe there are only three colleges in NYS that offer it: Hunter, Teachers College, and Dominican.
