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.

Joni – HURST-EULESS-BEDFORD ISD (verified owner) –
I felt that this training went over all aspects of the T-Tess process
Emily – EL PASO ISD (verified owner) –
If I did not have any understanding of the evaluation system and was fresh out of college and new to the world of education, this would have been somewhat useful. However, I found this training to be time wasting as I can easily read a rubric myself and quickly identify what is expected of me. I did not find it helpful and found the shapes at the end to be very elementary and a bit patronizing. I can see how this course would be beneficial, but for teachers with prior teaching experience, it was not necessary. I do appreciate the electronic format as opposed to a in person training.
Abigail – HURST-EULESS-BEDFORD ISD (verified owner) –

Demi – HURST-EULESS-BEDFORD ISD (verified owner) –
I felt like this course provided clear information for teachers to understand in regards to the evaluation process in the classroom. Having a better understanding of what is expected from appraisers is beneficial and reassuring.
William – SAN MARCOS CISD (verified owner) –
I feel that this course does a good job of covering the domains broadly. But I feel that before we complete a task such as evaluate another teachers work we should be given an example of how another teacher was evaluated in a separate video and why. This would give teachers such as myself a chance to understand the dimensions separately that we evaluated the teacher on in her video so we could evaluate accurately.
