PREPARING TO TEACH.
Having decided TO teach, the next
step is preparation. This is all i'm
portant The fatal mistake made by
most people is entering the profess
sion before they have sufficient train
ing. III one is 10 be a lawyer or
physician. he must have fair general
education and then several years of
special preparation. Yet the train
ing of young minds and the building
of character is much more difiicult
and Of far greater importance than
the prescribing for our physical all
ments or adjusting our business mat
tiers; and besides it is economy on
the teachers part to thoroughly pre-
pare himself for his life work. The
steps in preparation may be as fol-
bows.
/. A general education such as can
be obtained at a reputable high
school, academy or college. Any one
who is to teach grammar grade pupils
should have at the least a complete
course in a high school or an
academy. II he expects TO teach in
high school or academy he should
have a college diploma. II in col.
lege or university, nothing short Of
a post graduate degree should be
considered.
2. After this general education there
should be special training such as is
given in the best normal schools.
This special work should consist Of
professional studies such as School
Management, Methods OF Teaching,
History Of Education and Practice
Teaching. This should be under
competent supervision and enough to
give the student confidence in his
own powers.
B. A teacher should have a large
fund Of general knowledge apart from
that gained in text books. To secure
this he should be yersed in the best
literature in the world, books, maya
zines and periodicals and know some
thing OF the writer's As rule teachers
are woefully lacking in this respect.
III teacher falls in conversation with
travelling man, he is put to shame
because of his lack OF general knowl-
edge. The travelling man, perforce,
reads the newspapers and magazines
and is continually discussing current
events; but the country teacher lives
far from railroads, seldom sees daily
paper or a magazine and often has
no reading than some little local
paper with but little news and that
stale. Reading habits should be
learned in youth at which time il is
easily acquired. In after years il is
very difficult.
4. While the above preparation is
going ON She candidate should ac-
quaint himself in every way possible
with the process of teaching He
should not only observe his own teach
ers but should visit schools, attend
teachers conventions and read jour
nails Of education. II the above pro
gram is followed, the teacher will
not only be competent but full Of
enthusiasm and eager TO begin his
chosen work.
