Not a boring office job The school experience can differ depending on your allocated school but overal good fun
I thoroughly enjoyed the insight programme primarily because it gave me an excellent taster of what the real Teach First experience would be like Theres no better window into what teaching would be like than actually standing up and delivering a 50 min
It was a really insightful interesting and well put together 2 week programme There was a good balance of theory as well as hands on practical teaching and experience
I really enjoyed the whole experience meeting fellow participants Teach First professionals current participants of the Teach First cohort
Fantastic two weeks would definitely recommend
Really enjoyable a lot of information personal development and meeting lovely people
I really enjoyed Teach First Insight it was an incredible experience and one that has helped me develop skills that I will need in my future career as a teacher
Information learnt was very interesting except a bit repetitive and sometimes tedious eg Self reflection but the activity was not stimulating enough to reflect on
I really enjoyed insight mainly due to the fantastic varied programme which was put on It wasnt just aimed at one area and gave a variety of sessions to develop different skills from personal brand to classroom skills to self evaluation This variet
It was a great opportunity to experience the real life teaching chllanges
It was a thoroughly enjoyable and informative experience it taught me a lot about teaching as a profession as well as the charity Teach First while being a great opportunity to meet other people with similar passions teaching STEM and get some work exp
Really enjoyed the experience getting to know everyone else on the programme and getting to know the school I was working at
Had a great time on the placement in school However would have like to have taught more than two lessons during the week in school and feel the training sessions could have been condensed
It was really interesting and I definitely learned a lot but Im not sure I would say that I enjoyed it overall it was hard work and quite stressful at points
It was incredibly thought out and extremely worthwhile
Impossible not to enjoy
I had a really interesting time seeing what life as a Teach First teacher would be like and really enjoyed the camaraderie with the other participants and the Teach First teachers at the school I went to
Definitely a challenging learning experience
It was an amazing company to work for They have a great ethos and treated us really well The toughest bit as a student was getting up so early in the mornings
