What do I need to know to even interview?? I don't feel like I have the right experience for these positions, but I am dedicated and passionate about reading and want to learn all that I can.

Why do you feel you're unprepared? Some would say if you can teach kids who are years behind in their skills, you'll be fine in any neighborhood elementary school.

And - new teachers don't have experience - that goes with being a new teacher. I could write volumes about what helps children learn to re...See More

Ann I'd also love to have you as my neighbor so I could share my experiences. I recently retired after teaching reading for nearly 40 years. I would suggest that you familiarize yourself with your state's core curriculum. Also, become an expert in Balanced Literacy and how you would you create a balanced literacy program in your school.
