From “Novice” to “No Problem!” Survival Tips for Teachers New to U.S. Classrooms

Teaching is a noble yet complex profession anywhere in the world. A teacher’s success in the classroom depends not only on pedagogical expertise but also on knowledge of the particular expectations and processes of the education culture, which can vary across and within national borders.

In this workshop, teachers new to the U.S. public school system will become acquainted with the key structures and players in this system while also gaining practical knowledge of how to lead a classroom and relate to administrators and parents within this context.

This presentation will include an overview of the spoken and unspoken expectations placed upon teachers by high accountability testing and linguistically and culturally-diverse school communities.

Teachers will walk away with concrete classroom management strategies and routines as well as a deeper understanding of how to navigate the American public school system both inside and outside of the classroom.

Dr. Jenny Jacobs works with newcomer immigrant youth at The English High School in Boston Public Schools, where she teaches English and Spanish Native Literacy courses. Jacobs worked for 7 years as a teacher educator at Wheelock College and Boston University after receiving her doctorate from Harvard University with a focus on bilingualism, biliteracy, and cross-cultural learning. In addition to her work as a teacher educator, Jenny has been a bilingual teacher, school leader, and literacy coach in Boston, Cambridge, New Jersey, Mexico City, El Salvador, Honduras and Seville, Spain. In each of these various settings, she has pursued advocacy for and collaboration with immigrant youth and families, especially from Central America and the Caribbean, with a focus on equal access to high quality reading and writing programs in their home language(s).
