In the sixth of an ongoing series of podcasts for new teachers, Janet Taylor joins Tim to discuss what new teachers need to know about what it takes to be a professional art teacher. Listen as they cover everything from how to dress to what to do during staff meetings, as well as collaboration, communication, and whether it's worth it to dive into the world of social media.
No matter how you are feeling about this school year—whether you are apprehensive or you are excited about being back—setting goals for yourself can be a meaningful exercise that can help your teaching. Listen as Tim talks about finding worthwhile goals, seeing how you can grow in your teaching practice, and how the pursuit of those goals can help you at every step along the way.
