Has anyone joined Texas Teachers certification program?

Question

I plan to begin the texas teachers program in the fall or winter. I was wondering if anyone has participated in the program or if anyone has started an internship with the program. I'm primarily looking for some insight.

Answer 1

I received my certification through Texas Teachers two years ago. Great program; I recommend it to anyone who wants to teach but doesn't want to go back and get another degree in education. My first year teaching was on a probationary certificate and I was observed in the classroom by a retired principal working for Texas Teachers. I am still at the same school and district. They did a great job preparing me to be in the classroom and evidently my school agrees because I received very high scores on my summative appraisals.
