Written by Dr. Eric Hougan - a teacher preparation professor, National Board Certified Teacher, and longtime mentor - this book distills years of insider knowledge into a single accessible resource.

Inside, you'll find clear guidance on:
  • Choosing and succeeding in your teacher preparation program
  • Building a strong student teaching experience from day one
  • Working effectively with your mentor teacher and university supervisor
  • Crafting a standout teacher resume, cover letter, and portfolio
  • Mastering the teacher interview - including the questions you'll actually be asked
  • Navigating your first year and avoiding the burnout traps
