According to PayScale, more than 80 percent of graduates with a bachelor's degree in special education say their job makes the world a better place. Not only does this indicate that special education is a unique calling, but it demonstrates the very deep understanding that compassion, patience, kindness, and humility are the virtues we all need to make this world a better place.
"It has been said that teachers learn more than students, and in the case of the special education teachers I've known, that is certainly true," Nick Plato, Managing Editor of Best Education Degrees, said. "If you are called to teach special education and are seeking the best school to gain the knowledge and skills for licensure and success, we hope to help you along the way."
