Hello Gabriella!

Is there a chance your school provides any platforms where you could interact with fellow students who have just finished their student teaching? I believe the response to your query would be more accurate if it's tailored to your specific school. I've noticed that experiences can vary quite a lot from one college to another in my state!

Best,
Amanda

Hi Gabriella!
It's completely normal to feel anxious about student teaching—it's a significant step!
Here are some tips to help you prepare and manage your anxiety:
Start by learning the curriculum and observing your mentor teacher.
Use planners for lesson plans and keep a journal to reflect on your experiences.
Connect with your mentor and peers for support.
Practicing self-care is essential for maintaining your well-being throughout the process.
Manage anxiety by starting small and accepting feedback as a growth opportunity.
Stay positive and ask for help when needed.
Practice relaxation techniques like deep breathing to manage stress.
You've got this! Go Gabriella!
