Connor L. Macdonald Mrs. Schlock Teacher Cadet 2/22/11 I’m interested to join Teacher Cadet Program next year because I’ve always known the teaching profession would be my career path. It seems only natural to enrol as a Teacher Cadet to give my career as an educator a head start. It will be extremely beneficial to my future studies to have a hands-on background in teaching.

woodshop teacher. I’ve been teaching for 5 years so far and everything is always the same year after year. Since the three months of summer vacation is gone, it’s time to go back teaching my regular 6th grade woodshop class. This morning, I started my day with an egg muffin from McDonald’s which is my all-time favorite. When I reached the parking lot at Marston, I parked my car tired and desperate for some more sleep. As walking into the teacher’s lounge, I was greeted by other teachers with welcomes

for Future Teacher Cadets As I look back on my time as a Teacher Cadet this year I can say that there were some things I am glad I did. However, there are also other things I wish I had done. Being a Teacher Cadet is a big responsibility. If a person is not ready to work when entering the class, I do not think it is a program for them. To be successful in the Teacher Cadet program you have to be willing to work hard, be organized, and be up for anything. When I signed up for Teacher Cadet I knew

When I was young I always saw myself as a teacher I think because most of my role models, mom, several aunt, high school teachers, were all in that profession. I never though of anything else until I received what I believe was a true calling from God. In high school I was suppose to do my senior project with my friends mother in a second grade classroom, but at the last minute she couldn’t take me. I was so upset and nervous about where I would go. My counselor at Beaumont was able to find me

Should Teachers Carry Guns in the Classroom? For all the dangerous places in the world, such as places with wars and violence, you would think that a place where we send our own children would be safe. Schools shouldn’t be a place of fear. Schools are not safe anymore because of the violence that goes on in schools and sometimes deadly school shootings. We have had a lot of recent school shootings so far this school year and the year isn’t even over yet. As a matter of fact, the semester

learning styles. Since, private schools have a really small amount of students in each class, the teacher can give them their individual attention that they deserve. On the other hand, Public Schools are required to have 30-33 kids in one classroom, and they are attended by one teacher. I believe it is impossible for one teacher to help and have a bond with that number of kids. Private School teachers are well qualified and think of creative ways to challenge their students and motivate them to learn

Not a single one did anything to stop him. They didn’t stand up for me, they didn’t get a teacher and they didn’t even look uncomfortable. They just sat there, and did their work. I resented everything he stood for, everything that made him smile. Why would I hate that, you ask? The only time I saw him smile was when he was torturing me. One day, in the third semester, we were in L.A with a substitute teacher. He began yelling at me, saying “I was a ginger”, as per usual. I yelled at him that “he

Many of our teachers in the United States receive tenure. The amount of experience a teacher must first gain before receiving tenure varies from state to state, but I honestly think tenure should not exist at all. The baseless guaranteeing of a position so critical to the futures of many children and teens is simply inappropriate. In today’s society, far too many privileges are extended as rights. Teachers do not deserve to have their position guaranteed, taking away the competitive pressure that

The common solution to helping these students succeed in my school has been to give these students one period of English language study with a bilingual teacher while they spend the rest of the day integrated into other core classes with their English speaking peers. The results have not been promising for these students as frustration can set in if the speed of class is overwhelming. One alternative to

stressed that it is the responsibility of the teachers to motivate the students to learn. I agree with that idea because in my experience, classes that I categorized as boring and useless, were led by teachers that made no connection to their students; teachers that didn’t lake learning exciting and worthwhile.
