Partner Teacher: Expression of Interest Form

Thank you for your support!

The Partner Teacher is the classroom teacher who works closely with Pre-service Teacher(s), opens their professional life to the Pre-service Teacher, and very gradually increases the Pre-service Teacher’s involvement in classroom curriculum, learning, and activities.

This form is an expression of interest. Please speak with your Principal / School Liaison. We require the full support of the Partner Teacher, School Principal, Liaisons and School District. Before we place a Pre-service Teacher with you, we confirm your teaching assignment details with you and your school administration team.

Note: We work with all subjects & grades!
This information helps us during the matching process.

We encourage all teachers to add their names to our roster.

Our placements are based on pre-service teacher suitability, availability, teaching specialization, pathway, program, interests, eligibility, commute times AND partner teacher teaching subject, grades, school location, and eligibility!

Including more about your teaching assignment details is very helpful! For example ... "I teach 50% humanities - grade 8, 25% english language arts - grade 7 / 25% art - grade 7 ... all in English" helps us make the best possible match!
