[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This will be my 19th year of teaching. The past two years I've worked closely with two first year teachers. They are eager with enthusiasm and wonderful. We have learned a lot from each other. I love their fresh ideas and willingness to try new things, because everything is new. They enjoy my mentorship and advice when things get hard. Every teacher has his/her strengths. Give the new teacher a chance. [/quote] Great advice. We had a first year teacher and LOVED her--so much so that we were thrilled when our second child got her two years later. One of our kids has a second-year teacher this year, and I get a similar vibe from her: enthusiastic, energetic, invested, fun. (I'd probably be more worried about a first-year teacher in HS; it feels like a different type of subject mastery and confidence is required to command a classroom of teenagers.)[/quote] I'm the teacher that wrote this. We are high school teachers. :-)[/quote]
