Overview of Experience
Please give an overview of the virtual experience and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
My virtual experience was really good overall. On the first day we were introduced to teachfirst as a company and what their morals are. We were then put into groups to meet each other and we had to plan a debate. This was about whether sets should be in schools and we had to plan arguments and debate our position. Then on the second day we taught out own planned lessons and received feedback.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
It was really interesting and made me realise how helpful and impactful teachfirst have been not only in the lives of the students they support but also within the lives of the teachers they train.
They offer brilliant courses for post-graduate students looking for jobs as well as helping those who don't get the same opportunity as others.
