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.

The course was easy to navigate. However, I attended the original T-Tess training a few years back. An actual in class course helped me understand the expectations of this course today. I knew how to script and what to look for. Practice makes it it easier.

It is helpful, but VERY long. I feel the sample lesson could have provided the needed information without including a full 45 mins. I also was a little confused on the first quiz where you were to compare the areas of proficiency so I did not get to submit an answer.

They are at least attempting to make it less scary and just more a process and part of a job.
