Why Some People Like TFA Somewhat Less Than Others Do | Gary Rubinstein's Blog

I get questions about Teach for America from preservice teachers, usually about the time they see the number of courses we want them to take versus the shorter path through TFA. My advice is usually pretty simple: If you just want to teach as a temporary service project, and not make it a career, then maybe (but still not certainly) TFA might be a viable option. But if you want anything more than that, and think teaching might be a career option, then the traditional route should still be your best option.
