Madison School District 321

1st Grade Teacher

September 2019 • Rexburg, ID

What I liked

I love this school. I have been here a few times before my student teaching and it really is just a wonderful experience. The teachers collaborate often and the principal takes the time to know each student. It’s just a great environment to be in.

What I wish was different

I wish I had more time in SPED. We only spent seven weeks there and it was the only practicum I’ve had in SPED but I absolutely loved my experience there.

Advice

Don’t be too hard on yourself. You’re probably doing better than you think. Also keep asking questions. Never stop asking because I learned so much by asking my mentors about the curriculum, how things work as a real teacher and their thoughts on being in the education department.

Kindergarten Paraprofessional

What I liked

I loved working in the field and gaining experience for my post graduate career.

What I wish was different

I wish I could have taken classes in the evening, or more courses online. It was hard to be in school and complete my full time work during the day.

Advice
