Canisius College

Student Teaching provides Canisius students with the culminating experience of their training to become teachers. With the knowledge and skills acquired in coursework and early field experiences, Canisius students are well prepared to assume the responsibilities of a classroom. Canisius student teachers complete two, seven-week placements with the guidance and mentoring of cooperating teachers in community schools and a college assigned supervisor. All requirements and expectations for student teachers, cooperating teachers and college supervisors are outlined in detail in the Student Teacher Candidate Field Experience II Handbook (link to the left). The Office of Educational Partnerships strives to ensure a quality experience for all student teachers and the schools in which they train to become professionals and leaders in the field of education.
