Description
As the teacher shortage crisis continues, we can help simplify your new hire process. The content is organized into five manageable modules that teachers can easily comprehend, allowing for meaningful discussions between principals and educators. Once teachers have completed this course, they will have the knowledge and confidence to help positively impact students’ learning outcomes, as well as their own performance and professional growth. The T-TESS Teacher Orientation is excellent for new and late hires.

Christopher – HUNTSVILLE ISD (verified owner) –
it was bearable
Madeline – PFLUGERVILLE ISD (verified owner) –
I feel like it could definitely be condensed, BUT it does help you think towards structuring your activities.
Rosario – HUNTSVILLE ISD (verified owner) –
Very thorough and very helpful for first year teachers.
Regina – MARSHALL ISD (verified owner) –
four stars
Joseph – PFLUGERVILLE ISD (verified owner) –
This was a great course. Going over the rubric probably needs to be done in person. Other than that, it is a great pre-cursor to speaking to a more senior educator or mentor.
Michael – EL PASO ISD (verified owner) –
I would much rather have an in person training with hands on learning.
Kristen – EL PASO ISD (verified owner) –
Course was very well done. The presenter was easy to listen to and instruction was clear. Videos were helpful.
Lisa – EL PASO ISD (verified owner) –
I learned a lot. I would like to see more examples of observations and feedback like the one that was provided.
Gloria – HENDERSON ISD (verified owner) –
The format of the training is good. There are reflection questions along the way to help you process and reflect was is being discussed. The example video used for the observation was really good. The explanation of each component of T-TESS is for the most part well. I gave it a four star because I was still left with a question: How will T-TESS show that a teacher is growing as time passes if evaluations involve many factors such as different students each year and the timing of the observation.

This is for all new teachers because it is very instructional.
