Teacher intern tomorrow

Tomorrow, I start with a teacher intern for the first time. I've wanted to do this for a while, and I'm glad I'm getting an opportunity. I don't see myself ever leaving the classroom and going into administration, except perhaps as a department head. However, being part of what helps guide new teachers in the classroom could be something I can see myself doing in the future. Perhaps as an adjunct professor in the summers at a local university. Or, being a mentor teacher. Seeing my own teaching through the lens of someone else is a daunting but exciting challenge.

This is a great time for you to take this on since you are already in reflective mode from National Boards. Good luck with your intern!

Enjoy! I'm sure you'll be a great mentor. It's going to be exciting having another teacher to reflect and share ideas with.
