First Lady Jill Biden, is about to make an unprecedented step in the history of the US by resuming her teaching career as a full-time Northern Virginia Community College professor, ABC News reported on Tuesday.

Biden who revealed her plans to continue her career will be the earliest US First Lady who has a paid job outside the White House.

President Biden's Spouse used to have her original job as a teacher during her eight-year period as a Second Lady.

She said in an interview on "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert: "I’m really looking forward to being first lady and doing the things that [I did] as second lady, carrying on with military families and education and free community college, cancer [the Biden Cancer Initiative], that Joe and I have both worked on."

The First Lady continued: "It’s hard for me to think of it in historic terms I guess because I taught all eight years when I was second lady."

Biden spokesman Michael LaRosa told ABC News: “As she did as Second Lady, out of respect for the privacy of her students and to preserve the integrity of her classroom, Dr. Biden will keep her teaching at Northern Virginia Community College separate from her public role."

It is worthy to mention that President Joe Biden asserted the importance of the educational tendencies that would be adopted by him during his term as US President during the Presidential Elections Campaigns last year.

Moreover, various columnists wondered about the usage of "Dr" before Jill Biden's name. However, Biden was backed by two former US First Ladies: Hillary Clinton, and Michelle Obama.
