Brasher Falls Central School District

Regents Review Teacher

July - August 2019 • Brasher Falls–Winthrop, NY

What I liked

I loved being able to have some structured time to work on my own professional development. I created my own lessons, assessments, activities, etc. It was awesome to be able to work with some students in these small class sizes and interact with them, and closely observe them interact with the material.

What I wish was different

I wish there was a more consistent attendance from the students. This opportunity is something the school offers as a free option - and thus attendance was sporadic and inconsistent, making for some difficult planning.

Advice

Be flexible. I walked in most days not knowing what groups of students would show up, so I had to prepare for every possible outcome. Preparation and flexibility were essential for this experience to be a positive one.
