Can I work and participate in the TeacherReady program?

Yes. The TeacherReady® program was designed with working students in mind. There is never any set time that you have to be in the e‐learning system. Course information is available to students 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. You will be placed with a mentor teacher in your local community where you will spend approximately 150 hours observing, substituting, interviewing, and completing other classroom field experiences. You will be required to be in your mentor teacher’s classroom a minimum of 2‐5 hours per week. The final field experience will be teaching five, full, consecutive days in your mentor's classroom. You should allow for 6-10 hours a week for the online instruction and assignments during the program. The hours per week may vary depending on the content of the lesson.
