Good to know

  • Don’t hold back by only sharing the brochure with students who you think have potential to become teaching candidates. It isn’t always possible to identify who has interest, and don’t assume that teaching is an innate skill for which some students are better suited over others. Use this brochure with the intent to change perceptions, not just to recruit.
  • It is ok if you do not immediately know all the answers to the questions asked by students about teaching. Let them know that you can direct them to the right contact person who can help them, including a colleague and/or a local math or science teacher. If you still don’t know who to contact, reach out to one of these organizations.
  • Consider pinning some brochures for students to take next to an “Teach Science/Math! Inspire young Minds” poster.
