Was hoping someone can help me- I have a new PGCE student in with one of my classes. They're supposed to be taking the class, but have said they'd be more comfortable "team teaching" to begin with.
I've barely had a minute to chat to them, but when I suggested they take the class for an activity, the response was that they'd rather "team teach". I had to run so couldn't get them to expand on this, but my communication via email has been equally non-enlightening.
What do most people consider to be "team teaching"? I kind of assumed it would be me taking most of the lesson, with them running a starter or other clearly defined section. Really struggling to know what they expect...
I'm somewhat concerned about the whole thing anyway, as it's for a completely different subject to their own subject, they haven't studied it since GCSE, and they don't seem hugely keen to be remotely proactive with speaking to me, getting to know the class or subject, or teaching them at all.
But in summary, what the hell is "team teaching"?!
