The Course
Ready to transform your potential into effectiveness? Dive into the world of mentorship and oversight, where you'll get feedback on your work from a teacher and perhaps other students as well. Grades will be provided if needed.
We will meet once a month to share ideas, our work, inspiration, ideas, and perhaps even a book or two!
But it's more than just group meetings and feedback; it's about making a tangible difference in your classroom (wherever that may be) and beyond. I look forward to getting to know you!
What you will learn
When I first started creating this group chat and teacher evaluation experience, I really wanted to ensure that it gives you, as a student, the tools and insights to really thrive in your work.
In my work it really helps me to get feedback from multiple people and get support when I need it. It is also very rewarding to be able to share my work with others. I hope you feel the same and thrive in this environment!
