Baltimore City Teaching Residency ROCKS!

Pros

The amount of support that you receive with BCTR is paramount to other programs based on observations and conversations with my colleagues who did similar programs. They were all pretty surprised when I told them that I had a personal coach who worked one on one with me as well as a team of people who provided live feedback to me after lesson delivery and/or after viewing a video of my lesson.

Cons

The observations can be a little intimidating as your coach may pop up at any time. In my case, my coach came with teams of people so it was a tad intimidating. That being said, everyone in attendance was a teacher and offered really great advice for fixing the things that needed fixing in real-time.

Pros

You will meet some impassioned educators and people at BCTR. I won't drop names, but over the PST in Summer 2021, I met some very lovely and helpful people. This goes for the managers, the coaches, and your fellow peers as well. BCTR will support you the best they can. They want you to succeed and grow as an educator. Teaching in Baltimore isn't easy (more on that in Cons) but they want you to do your best. Teaching in Baltimore is an act of great service and selflessness. If you survive and thrive here, may you receive great praise from your family and friends.

Cons

Teaching in Baltimore is extremely, certainly difficult. 6 weeks of training is not enough (BCTR knows this and acknowledges it). You will be expected to give your life to teaching here - this looks like overtime everyday, early mornings, late nights, and managing classrooms all by yourself. Plenty of schools in Baltimore have supportive staff, but no matter what, you will have a lot of work on your shoulders. PST is intensive, and will push you to your limits. That is not a bad thing, but prepare to have no free time for some of June, and all of July.

Pros

You'll probably get a job.

Cons

This program promised support during the first year of teaching. Instead, the entire year is full of deadlines and intimidation tactics. Your position in the program is threatened constantly while your "coaches" ignore you and provide no support. The director and hiring manager completely blow off feedback from Fellows letting them know that something is terribly wrong with the way things are being run. Around 50% of my Fellow class quit. They told someone that they'd like more people to step forward with concerns and then risked his job by setting a meeting against his will with his principal. My stress levels are on high, and it has nothing to do with the stress of my school. The stress from this program has had me near a mental breakdown for months. This is not support.
