Meet Your Instructors

Our Philosophy: At the New Teacher Mentoring Society we take you from THEORY to PRACTICE!
- Teachers bridge the gap between what is and what can be.
- Approach education through the lens of possibilities.
- Teachers are humans working with other humans. We must be both CONTENT matter and PEOPLE matter experts.
- Relationships! Relationships! Relationships!
