I am a rising senior and I will soon be applying to some schools. I have some teachers in mind for my recs, and I know they’d be willing to write them, but how do I get them? Do I need to get a form from each college, or from the common app website or something? Do I just tell them and they get a form from somewhere else?

MindStorm asked:


My friend is a new teacher (right out of college) and has had trouble finding a full time teaching job for elementary school. She is thinking of becoming a substitute teacher but doesn’t know if it would pay the bills. Can substitute teachers make as much money as a full time teacher? If not then what else could she do?

Henri W asked:


It seems that tutoring is not stable enough.
Is there a way to stablize the clientelle, and what can i do about the rash of cancellations?
I want to teach language to adults where there is high demand, and I work in a metropolis of 2 million people.

I would not be limited to evenings, but also teach during the day.

My brothers high school teacher is making his class stay for long periods after the bell as punishment. This is ridiculous because some of the kids are missing their bus and others who are behaving properly are having to stay as well. How long are teachers allowed to keep these student after class?

I am interested in hearing from educators who use their SMARTboard for more than just projecting Powerpoint presentations, etc. Tell me about the interactive lesson plans you have developed!

Jokey B asked:


Also, how can you tell how long to make a lesson plan for? Any rule of thumb for how long a lesson plan will last? Like how long will an activity last?
I know that is so vague. Is there like a chart that shows how long certain activities typically last, any kind of measure of how long things last with this age group?

Steinson asked:


My school is starting up a new tutoring program for younger students. Any advice would be helpful.

What do you consider to be the three most important factors of a good tutoring session? Explain why these factors are important and how you would incorporate them in a session.

Maduritas asked:


I’m having trouble finding information about what exactly an English teacher is allowed to do. How much freedom is involved in choosing texts and things to cover? Are lesson plans kind of laid out for you or do you create them from scratch and they have to be approved? I’m sorry if my questions are things that are difficult to answer. I recently decided to leave corporate america and become a HS teacher and I just want as much information as possible.

Thanks!

Justin N asked:


I am teaching sophomores, in two days, how to write a Letter of Introduction. So far, I have found limited resources online.

I am in a bind as a student teacher and need to give good instruction to them.

And another question, since it has been a while since I’ve covered this topic:

What is the difference between a cover letter and a letter of introduction?

Sharla A asked:


If it is for a legitimate reason, do they think it is ok or that the student is weak or overly emotional? Do they empathise with the student more than they may let on? This is just a question from a particularly stressful experience, in which crying occured in front of multiple teachers. Do they always remember that that was the crying kid or eventually they don’t even think about it?
It would be great if teachers could answer this.
