Case: New Teacher Blues
A teacher has been working in the education profession for two years. In approaching the third year of teaching, this teacher has realized that they have an issue with effectively using assessments to drive instruction. This teacher has had few evaluations from administrators and little feedback on what they are doing well with or how they can improve instruction. What can this new teacher do to provide quality instruction for their students?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
New teacher should start by reaching out to their teacher mentor. If their school district does not offer mentors, then they could approach a senior teacher asking for assistiance in this matter. If they are not comfortable reaching out on grade level, they can go to their administration for assistance in this matter. Their administration should refer them to who they feel would be the best role model for this specific concern. There are so many aspects that incorporate good teaching, that it is impossible to be an expert at it all. That is why we collaborate, co-teach, observe mentor teachers, attend to professional learning, and improve ourselves through experience and seminars. We all have strengths and weaknesses and admitting that you have them is a huge step. New teacher needs to know that depending on peers and your administration will make you the best teacher you can be! |

Comments: If I were in this situation, I would exactly do this because teachers need to reach out to their mentors because as a teacher we should always be striving to do better and to learn something new everyday in order to be the best teacher we can be. |

Comments: Mentoring is so important for teachers and we can all get great advice from one another. I believe that if we spend time with a mentor we can find better ways to improve and even if administration doesn't have time to go over in depth feedback then a mentor can give good advice while being the best role model. |
