Testimonials

“I feel more confident with specific strategies such as discourse and classroom management because of induction.”
“It has helped me realize that all new teachers are stressed and the importance of taking care of myself. I also know that it is okay to make mistakes.”
“The course really emphasizes that we are not alone. We have a group of new teachers to lean on and to show us that what we are going through is normal for a new teacher.”
