Most new teachers starting out in the classroom are aware that while it is important to raise academic standards of today's youth in classroom all across America, it is the professional experience and support that they need especially in their first year of managing a classroom.

The Teacher-to-Teacher Initiative is a resourceful community of teachers which was designed by and for America's teachers. It continues to remain a strong force supporting teachers' efforts in the classroom through professional development workshops and distance learning and by sharing important and relevant information through email updates.

In addition, its community also shares concerns on classroom management issues and includes valuable tips and insights on both classroom management and lesson plans.

Teacher Workshops offer classroom teachers a free chance to become involved in high-quality professional teaching development designed to provide the classroom support, technical assistance, and lesson plan help needed to promote professional growth and academic success.

Teaching Resources include

 

• summer workshops in selected cities all across the US.
• previous session materials offered online in various subject areas ranging from foreign languages, to literacy to Math and sciences.

Participants in the summer workshops for teachers are usually teachers from around the country who share instructional strategies and knowledge in each content area and for each grade level. Every summer workshop consists of outstanding teachers who are sent by their respective districts and who have accomplished high academic success with his or her students.

 

You might also be able to receive teacher-to-teacher credit for participating in such online teacher teaching workshops and summer workshops either on the state level or district level. You should check your state to see requirements.

The Training Corps supports prospective participants through regional workshops,mentoring programs, distance learning presentations, web casts and follow-up visits.

By signing up for future updates, you are ensuring professional development and growth important for all teachers, new or seasoned.

Online teacher workshops are in the process of being designed and will be offered shortly.
