What Our Trainees Say About Us
John Scott
Geography Trainee 2018-19
"I would recommend the i2i programme because of the high standard of tuition from the course tutors, which has pushed my understanding much further than I expected. I’d also recommend it because of the friendly supportive atmosphere which has created a camaraderie between us all, essential to cope with the rollercoaster of teacher life!"
WHY DID YOU CHOOSE TEACH@WEYDON/i2i?
I chose the i2i programme because the staff on the course were very supportive from day one, which has continued throughout the course.
WHAT HAVE BEEN THE HIGHLIGHTS SO FAR?
My highlight has been running a musical ‘band clinic’ with a couple of my school’s budding rock bands every Thursday. It has been a brilliant way to build relationships with some of the students outside of the Geography classroom, as well being good fun too.
I’ve also loved being in the classroom and now find it so satisfying to be able to teach a lesson and engage the pupils in a way that would have been impossible at the start of the course.
WOULD YOU RECOMMEND THE PROGRAMME AND WHY?
I would recommend the programme because of the high standard of tuition from the course tutors, which has pushed my understanding much further than I expected. I’d also recommend it because of the friendly supportive atmosphere which has created a camaraderie between us all, essential to cope with the rollercoaster of teacher life!
