Please share Beginning Teacher / Relief Experiences and Support.....we would love to see and read about.....
- The first year of teaching can be a wonderful (busy) experience.
- I was fortunate to have a wonderful teaching mentor for my first year. Initially, I basically aligned my program with hers. As I felt more comfortable with my own teaching, and grew in confidence, I was able to begin to express my own 'teaching style'.
- It is really important to observe and ask questions. Please don't expect perfection particularly in your first year out.
- Growth comes from being brave enough to try new things, throw out those that didn't work and move on and up with the ones that did.....
Experienced teachers - we would love for you to .....
