Show Notes:

Welcome to Week #3 of the Beginning Teacher Training Series of the Year!

If you're a new teacher who's in the midst of the job search process or you are already teaching and you really want to know how to get a permanent contract at your school, you're going to love this show. 

I've been where you are - but not only that, I've worked with dozens of principals while I taught pre-service teachers at the University of Lethbridge I Alberta, Canada, and when I implemented my literacy program in Southern California after completing my PhD at the University of Alberta.

I worked with hundreds of new teachers across Canada after publishing my book, The Beginning Teacher's Handbook for Elementary School and completing my Masters in Education on the topic: New Teachers, What's the Problem Here?

So - I've learned a thing or two over the years about what principals really want when they are in the midst of the hiring process (and when they come into your classroom for those dreaded evaluations).

Inside this training, you'll learn:

• 5 things that your new principal is really looking for when they hire (and when they consider bringing you onto their staff in a permanent position).
• Why these 5 things are so important to them in terms of the broader school culture.
• Strategies you can use to make yourself stand out from the crowd while staying true to yourself and increasing job satisfaction.

I've helped hundreds of new teachers prepare for and successfully navigate their job search, so don't miss out on this special training, available only for a limited time.
