Frequently asked questions
You'll get the most out of this session if you're someone who is brand new to teaching and currently lives in the United States (or is a U.S. citizen living abroad). If this doesn't sound like you, please visit the website of the State Education Agency for information and assistance.
You'll have the best experience if you join from a computer, as we'll be sharing a slide deck and asking participants to use various Zoom features like chat and hand raising.
