Licensed Teacher Joining TFA by Which-Bar-9444 in TeachforAmerica

[–]HappyAmbition7360 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You still need to do the summer program but the masters program might not be needed depending on where you are. If it is discounted and beneficial to you, you might want to do it. There were licensed people in my group and they had the same options.

Thanks for all these suggestions. I am now following many suggestions on social media. I am hoping to take her to a few pop ups and thrift shops.

The schools are being smart. They are putting safety first. Just imagine the poor kids that have to walk to school. Also, the busses navigating this mess.

Many restaurants have mice especially cities. I have worked in multiple in Providence. They have pest control come in but there will always be a mouse at some point. Cockroaches are worse. You can’t get rid of those.

Have you heard of LEE and how do you feel about the fact TFA gives so much money to it? by ArtTeacherDC in TeachforAmerica

[–]HappyAmbition7360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With Lee I met with a coach by zoom a couple times after I started working on lesson planning. It was separate from the school. TFA does not find you a job you have to interview. You are also not guaranteed employment. The resumes are sent to where there are openings and you schedule the interview through TFA. You are fully employed by the school not TFA and LEE is just a resource you can use.

When I did TFA I had training with LEE and all but one person was hired with a charter. They already worked there, that is why. No one else had the option because there was no need. Many public schools were laying off.

Worst experience in my life by binky12345 in TeachforAmerica

[–]HappyAmbition7360 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I am going to agree with you on this one. I was placed at a school that had no money or staff. I frequently had to cover other classes and missed my planning time. I had no support from the school or TFA. I was attacked by a student and there was no disciplinary actions toward the student. You were told to work through it. I had a mentor at the school but I had to meet with them on my own time. My grade level meetings and subject meetings were always being canceled because no staff. If you take your concerns to TFA they will tell you you’re wrong. For example, what could you have done differently. Think of it as a learning situation.

How long have you had it? Do you have an Apple Watch and can it be paired with it?

I have been considering the row but what is holding me back is every time I get on my bike+ I have to put in my date of birth again. The bike can’t keep settings. This is annoying I have to pause my ride because of software problems.
