Student review [#37439] for Teacher Education with Political Science
at Columbia University

The professors in the department of the College of Teachers are the hub of knowledge in the field of education. They are incredibly experts in their specific areas, but they also know where to turn if there is another expert who would be more helpful. Teachers and teaching assistants are easily accessible both by email and in person. The curriculum is very specific to each major and there is a very clear outline of what is expected of each student. All requirements for graduation, certification and class expectations are clearly described. Although the workload is intense, it is expected of such a rigorous and demanding school. Professors, assistants and other staff are there to help students every step of the way. What I love most about Teachers College is that students are expected to collaborate, discuss and explore issues as a group and then as individuals. We gain as much practical experience as possible and receive all the necessary resources. Teachers College makes me feel more than prepared to enter the workforce after graduation.
