Overview

The Health and Physical Education (PreK-12) program at Eastern Mennonite University will give you many opportunities for classroom observation and teaching, including a full semester of student teaching.

Practical Experiences

At many colleges, students don’t get into the classroom until their third year. You are in the classroom in some way nearly every semester.

At EMU, education students are in local classrooms, observing and learning, by their fifth week of classes.
Local school divisions are richly diverse in culture, ethnicity and socioeconomic status.
Field experiences are embedded throughout program so that education students are in the field nearly every semester.
Students are in a classroom full-time during student teaching, and receive regular feedback and assistance from the classroom teacher and an EMU representative.
Students may choose more than one student teaching placement to experience multiple classroom settings and locations.
Student teachers also participate in Reflective Teaching Seminar class which provides additional support to students during the student teaching semester and covers valuable topics such as preparing for job searches and interviews.
