Lynnette Beer asks:
I have 3 more courses and student teaching left until I earn my teaching certification! I have a couple of questions and a response to any would be helpful.
I am wondering if there is something I should be doing to prepare for the experience in the meantime? Is it a good idea to volunteer in a classroom? Or what other ways are there to prepare as well as build begin to build my resume’?
What do principals look for in a prospective teacher?
It’s getting close to interview time for next year, so this is a very timely question. Thanks, Lynnette, for asking it!
