advice By older teacher

1, Dress professionally...not trendy..maybe even to you a little fuddy
2. Latch on to and follow an experienced teacher who knows the school and parents...you can be creative next year; this year be safe!
3. Expect ugly notes. We all get several every year...it just goes with the territory.
4. Don't be afraid to admit you need advice. Every old teacher was a new teacher once and few of us have forgotten how scary it was, so most are more than happy (and honored) to be asked.
Good luck!
