"My" school had an apprentice teaching program since the 1920's I believe. I was an apprentice myself and got a job there when the program finished. Many of the teachers there are "directing teachers," I was one, too. Because the school program is an accredited program for getting a master's and a teaching certificate, I think probably news of this method will spread further and may influence other educational programs. i think it is crucial for student success that schools and parents work together on mutual goals. A lot of schools give it lip service and don't go beyond that. As I said, I learned it when I got my maser's as a useful technique. Andrea
