Student Teacher Forms
In the senior year or 5th professional semester, Midway candidates complete their culminating experience, student teaching. Attached is a short
summary about the Midway College program, for your information.
To be eligible for student teaching, Midway candidates will already demonstrate professional knowledge and skills through meeting such criteria as:
- passing the required Praxis tests,
- preparing a portfolio demonstrating each Kentucky New Teacher Standard and the Midway Teacher Leadership Standard, and
- successfully completing
- 80 or more hours of experiences in classrooms,
- an interview with educational professionals and practitioners, and
- all or most of their professional coursework with a GPA of 2.5 or better.
Prior to the student teaching semester, Midway College works with local schools/districts/teachers to assign each candidate to two 8-week blocks of full-time student teaching, in each of two classroom settings for a total of 16 weeks. Teachers who supervise student teachers must
- hold the appropriate teaching certificate
- hold a masters degree, and
- have at least three (3) years of classroom teaching experience
