I think about what my teacher education professors have taught me every day. Teaching has been stressful at times and overwhelming, but I have a good team to reach out to, an educational philosophy rounded in dedication to student learning and backed with research, and a deep compassion for my students. I love what I do.

Program Info

With its strong liberal arts focus, the Brevard College Teacher Education program offers several special characteristics that distinguish it from other teacher education programs. The Teacher Education Program is housed in Brevard College's Experiential Education Division, and the Wilderness Leadership and Experiential Education major collaborates in providing experiential learning to candidates. WLE 220, "Theory and Practice of Experiential Education" is a required course for all elementary and high school licensure areas. The coursework in the Teacher Education Program provides modeling of best practices and features a strong experiential base that includes classroom observation and experiences attached to numerous courses.

The program emphasizes reflection and active learning; students apply the theory they have learned in their college classrooms to help facilitate their activities in the public schools. Partnering school systems provide valuable field experience for teacher education students. All teacher education students are required as early as their freshman year to observe and complete practicums in diverse public school and after school educational settings and to participate in professional learning communities with in-service teachers and educational leaders in the region.
