Hello!
Right now, I'm considering to both practice AND teach OT. Is it a good idea to go in the practice, then the teaching route for occupational therapy? Is it worth getting my OTD to teach? What's holding me back is that I'll be giving all four of my limbs if I choose the doctorate route.
Originally, I want to just get my MOT, since an OTD isn't required. While applying, I work as a high school teacher. While I enjoy teaching, I'm leaning more towards OT. I want to incorporate both jobs together -- practice OT once I graduate, then teach it in the distant future.
I just need some input. I am applying to both OTD and MOT schools. Thank you guys, and best wishes on applying this year!
