Corporate to Classroom

A Career-Switcher's Guide to Teaching
Authors:
Publisher:
 2012

Summary

Out there in the vast community of new teachers, there are career-switchers wondering why they left Egypt (their last jobs), only to be miserable in the desert (their first year or so teaching). The high turnover rate suggests that many new teachers lose focus on the promised land (successful, educated children and a rewarding career).

This book will help all new teachers maneuver the basics such as lesson planning and classroom management strategies. More important, this book will discuss the additional challenges that come with teaching such as training, organizing meetings, developing relationships with coworkers and para-professionals, overcoming the lack of materials for students, financing personal expenditures, fostering communication, understanding school culture, and working within the school structure (or lack thereof).
