How To Find The "Right Fit" In A Teaching Job?

When: Wednesday, November 29th 2023, 2:00 pm - 2:45 pm EST
Nervous You Might Make The Wrong Decision When Selecting A School?

Well, that has a name and its called DECIDOPHOBIA and its the fear of making decisions &&

I know, I know, thats a little dramatic, however making the wrong decision about where to start teaching can impact your confidence, health, personal life, and the length of time you stay in the profession.

The problem is most students transitioning to a teaching career after graduation are selecting jobs a little blind because they dont get all the information they need to make an informed decision. They dont know what they dont know as they start their career, AND thats the norm&

So, I want to provide you an opportunity to BE CONFIDENT in knowing what you should know about the school/district as you start your teaching career.

That's the purpose of this information session - How To Find The Right Fit In A Teaching Job(Research) hosted by Ray Singletary, Supervisor of Teacher Talent and Recruitment for Manassas City Public Schools.

To give you a step by step process that you can use to research any School district, while giving you simple strategies to help you be confident that you found the right fit.

We will focus on the following:
1) Before You Apply
2) Before The Interview
3) After The Interview

Join us and get the information you need to find the right fit as you begin your journey into a teaching career.
