KING: If I was talking to someone that was going to
apply to a Lesley Collaborative Program, I would say to them
it was the best decision you could ever make
as a future educator.
Whether you're going to be in a classroom, in an after-school
program, if you're trying to one day get into an administration
or a leadership role, it's the best decision you could make
because it's going to be one of the most puring years you have
to just learn how to teach.
When I came into this year, I loved kids;
I can honestly say I'm leaving loving to teach.
There's a lot of responsibility that you have every day,
and if you don't show up and teach and prepare your lessons
the right way, the kids are going to be short changed.
So you are a teacher for a year, and you're not
getting paid for it, so it has to be some kind of passion
from somewhere to do it every day and do it well.
