AG :
It should be a 4 year apprenticeship. More hands on as the course goes on. Theory does not nearly enough as exposure.

This! They don’t even teach us the theory behind learning to read!

I think one year of theory and then three years with three different high quality classroom teachers. You would learn so much more!

I had 32 weeks from my uni, and I still had a meltdown before starting my first job because I felt like I knew NOTHING

Agree! To teach is a verb. It is an action and uni is not practical enough.

I’m 44 and going through uni now. We do about double the time you did now. But it’s still not enough. Quoting Piaget, Bybee and Bloom will not help!

I am a Behaviour TA in a state school, and a 3rd year preservice teacher. I don't think Uni prepares anyone. It's all how well you can rewrite texts.

Yessss!! It’s actually shocking. Some uni’s are changing things up. Pre-service teacher and grads, we’re here to support you x

my uni won't provide us with individualised feedback on our work yet barks "quality feedback" @ us every single class. How are we meant to improve?!?!

teaching should be a split degree, like electrical traineeships

I’m 6 months off finishing my master’s of teaching. I know pretty much nothing about day to day life as a teacher or practical skills.

A lot of uni degrees don’t reflect the reality of the job. How do you think this should be approached? 1/

100% I really hope they change the degree in the future. I'm about to graduate and the only reason I'm ready is bc I've been TAing for a year.

One of the things I was surprised that I was supposed to know that I was never taught in uni. It’s hard to teach phonics! I was just supposed to know!

Elizabeth Bennett :
LITERALLY!! Even studying to be a Teacher Aide, they don’t really teach you how to be an Aide, you only learn on your pracs and getting into the class

Feeling this in my first year teaching, all we really got was how to lesson plan, but that’s a little dip into the pool of teaching

Kenzie :
40 weeks unpaid work at Notre dame after 4 years, there needs to be a middle ground. 10 week pracs are financially unsustainable, how do I pay rent?

me right now in my last 5 week placement. My uni observed a lesson and said I planned an effective lesson,but I lack confidence🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️

I burnt out and didn't finish my degree thanks to the study load, but worked as a teacher aide for 2 years after and learnt more in that 2 years

I study through a small technology institute in NZ and we have over 50% of time in the classroom!!! It’s the best, our assignments relate to

I don’t understand why teaching isn’t an apprenticeship

should be 3 years, not 4 years. in nz and the uk, this is the case and you get more time in the classroom

user7077819972290 :
When I did my teaching I spent around 20 days in a classroom before I was qualified. No preparation at all.

Kehri - AuraAndElmCo :
I graduated mid pandemic. My final prac got cut short from 10 weeks to 5. I graduated with 13 weeks classroom time. Not enough at all! It’s ridiculous

It should be an apprenticeship or the 4th yr an intership

Just got a fail grade on a curriculum assessment which was to design a unit. Was never taught how to design a unit but was assessed on making one…
