"I was a good teacher before
I went to Regent. But there's
no comparison with the teacher
I am today."
Our Master Teacher program provides you with the skills to teach and guide your students to their highest potential. With NCLB and state standards pre-eminent in administrators' minds today, the role of properly aligned curriculum, instruction and assessment, implemented in a well-managed classroom where even students at-risk are equipped with the skills, resiliency and depth of character necessary to achieve and succeed at the highest levels, is of the utmost importance.
