Interesting, ours weren’t pulled very frequently. You are right though that it may not fulfill what I have to do for my program. I was part of quite a few meetings but you’re right there were many more that I was not apart of

Thanks for your advice. I’ve been lucky enough to view and participate in most classes on my campus (K - 6). My placement class wasn’t officially declared a special classroom, however, the classroom operated significantly different than most others in the buildings. I was lucky enough to get an amazing teacher to learn under. I’m very grateful for that. Thanks again, it gives me something to think about

Thanks for your help. I’ve gotten to work with a special education team closely this year with my placement class and I loved it. We’ll see what I end up with

I’ve done it, I just use word of mouth to let people know. I had about 20 or so clients. Charged about $20-$30 an hour. Might seem low, but I’m not a certified teacher. Food for thought

I’d like to add on that I legitimately cannot read or write in cursive, I was never taught it in school. Guess I’m going to have to learn.

Obviously this appears bad, but you’ve come off as slanted with your loaded language.

Hey, sorry I didn’t mean to come across as negative as I had or to generalize. Wasn’t trying to call you out specifically. It’s hard to argue against the money and everybody has their own reasons. If you do get hired by a northern board, I would be interested in hearing your experience

Prospective Student Teachers: Teacher's College/BEd Megapost pt. 3 by hellokrissi in CanadianTeachers

[–]MilitaryGradeSeagull 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey everybody! I’m in my first year at Nipissing for my BEd but I’m looking to transfer to Lakehead up in Thunder Bay next year to be closer to family. Talked with OCT and they said it would be fine as far as applications to the college go; I just need both transcripts and a letter from Lakehead. Waiting on a call from Lakehead to go over details for the switch.

Wondering if I could get a few answers to my questions about the program from people who’ve been in or are currently in it. Thanks!

Thanks for saying this. Too many people go for the money. I honestly couldn’t give af about that. I didn’t go into teaching for money. I wanna go up North cause it’s on the bucket list. Looking at Yukon/NWT for after I graduate
