Teacher & Founder
I co-founded a private nonprofit school where I teach fifth and sixth grade.
Here's the first step for professionals
When training to become a teacher, the more hands-on experience, the better! You should train in multiple classrooms with multiple teachers to get the best training experience. I recommend finding the most gifted student in your classroom and teaching for that student. That way, you're not only engaging and challenging the gifted students, but you'll notice that every other student in your classroom will perform better as well.
"Why are you putting all that money into your classroom? You won't have anything left! Why are you doing home visits? We're not teaching the parents! Why are you doing all of that?"
