Tips on becoming a teacher

How best to prepare for all this? Teachers were generally in

that shadowing a teacher, working as a teacher‘s aide,

agreement

student teaching, and even substitute teaching were the best ways

to prepare for the profession and insure you possess the right stuff. One science teacher went even further: I woul d even suggest that you become a teacher's assistant for a year before deciding to go into this field. This will give you a re glimpse into teaching. I would also suggest sticking it out for at least four years. After your fourth year of teaching, it gets so much easier. You know how to read the students better, you have learned to tweak lessons.
