A Piece of Advice

This is an interesting question. A piece of advice I would let the incoming teacher know is to be true to yourself and ask for help. In other words, be yourself, and know everyone has a different way as to how they approach teaching. I have always been one who, "Marches to the beat of a different drummer." That is what I mean by being true to yourself. I am still adjusting to all the best practices, the rules, deadlines and the checklists that come along with teaching. Again be true to who you are and ask for help. I have found that teaching these past three years consist of studying your craft, truly caring about students and respecting everyone incuding, the office staff, the custodial staff, other teachers, administration and of course the students. The advice mentioned and these practices will ensure a successful career in education.
