Additional Resource
Teacher preparation, student teaching, and finding a job can be daunting. I’ve created two resources to support aspiring teachers. The first is this website and the second is my book, Road to Teaching: A Guide to Teacher Training, Student Teaching, and Finding a Job. Learn how to differentiate yourself through your coursework, create a positive relationship with your cooperating (master) teacher, establish effective classroom management, perform well in your interview, and much more.
Thanks for visiting Road to Teaching!
