If you’re a new teacher, do you feel ready for the upcoming school year? 

After student teaching, we quickly realize that much of the theory that we learned in college is much more difficult to apply. We start to see the gaps in what we learned in our university classes and how things actually play out inside the classroom. Still, we have a vision in our heads of how we're going to be an amazing teacher just like the amazing teachers we've had before us. But we underestimate, or are entirely unaware, of the careful strategic planning and years of experience that it really took for that to happen. 

I want to help prepare you for the reality of this learning curve that you’re about to experience as a brand new teacher. Today I’m sharing some things that you’ll want to consider (that go beyond classroom set up) as you go into your first year of teaching.
