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.

Very helpful!
Gretchen – EAGLE MT-SAGINAW ISD (verified owner) –
I think this course is an excellent way to introduce T-TESS to an educator who, like myself, is unfamiliar with the process of evaluations. It had variance in the way that it explained the content and provided resources as they naturally were needed throughout the lessons.
S – HALLSVILLE ISD (verified owner) –
It was valuable.
Andrew – HALLSVILLE ISD (verified owner) –
Very informative
Nancy – BASTROP ISD (verified owner) –
This was a very user friendly course. I like that you were able to pick up where you left off if you could not sit through a full segment at a time..
Rosa – PASADENA ISD (verified owner) –
I liked being able to see an actual lesson, however I wish it for my content.

It is a great course and lets you gain experience with the tools instead of just watching someone else use them.
Maggie – COMANCHE ISD (verified owner) –

5-gives the breakdown of what is expected and what to expect. Prepares the teacher for the evaluation, and that there is always growth.
Kelly – LAKE WORTH ISD (verified owner) –
I thought this course highlighted important information about the T TESS process from the beginning of the year to the end. I also liked watching another teachers lesson and reflecting on how she did and review others responses compared to mine.
Kelly – COMANCHE ISD (verified owner) –
Informative
Mindy – WAXAHACHIE ISD (verified owner) –
Looking at standards is great, but I woudl have like to see how an administrator scored the same class we scored. With no comparison, how do I know I am viewing TTESS the same way?

mandatory training.
Carson – EAGLE MT-SAGINAW ISD (verified owner) –
The course was time consuming and some of the more time consuming portions (like watching the lesson from the 4th grade classroom) were probably not time spent in the most valuable area, at least for me. I prefer courses that allow me to read more rather than watch videos, as it allows me to take the amount of time that I need, more if I’m having trouble grasping something and less if it’s all making sense without difficulty or is already familiar to me.
