So, What's This All About?
A short video to show you the basics of the practice, examples from classroom life, and when to use it.
Why is it important?
Co-teaching can support TC learning over a period of months. It enables the TC to start experimenting with different teaching roles without yet having the full responsibility for teaching. This practice is good for young learners too—two adults working together in the classroom can keep students more engaged and meet the individual needs of more students by offering support for lesson activities and more individualized teacher attention.
