Teachers of Tomorrow is not a good program choice if you are adding to your certificate instead of starting from scratch. While I was in the program, I provided proof of a current certificate and transcripts of my college work, and they refused to acknowledge them and provide credit for me, so I had to repeat many courses that I had already completed. Then, months later, they emailed me to let me know that I could opt out of many classes that I already took. This happened with observations as well, initially requiring me to complete 7 observations to add my endorsement, then, after I completed 5 observations, they contacted me to let me know I only needed 2. I was successful in completing my certificate, but it was an arduous, obnoxious process where TOT was not helpful in any part. Additionally, I communicated with my advisors that I only wanted to be contacted by email, and I continued to receive many calls, multiple times a week, updating me on my progress, or just to "check in." I do not recommend this program.

Be prepared to Fail observation hours because you don’t memorize students names. I didn’t fail Any assignments throughout the course until I got to the stupid observation hours. Complete waste of time. They make you redo the hours if you miss out on some BS like that.

I have yet to start the job; I will begin on January 6, 2024. they have already taken money out of my account after calling over 20 times because no one in Arizona answered the phone. These dings tell me it does matter because I have the job, and we can start charging you the 420 before you start your position. They overdraft my account, and they do not care. Next, I had a guy call me about field experience, and I told him that I had yet to start the job; he said his records said that I had a job and had to have this done or I would be kicked out of the program.

TERRIBLE!!! Constantly given different information. Every time I finish what they tell me to do they end up saying there’s some new requirement or something has changed that forces me to do even more never ending work. I have a job and they made dealing with this much harder than it needs to be! Their infrastructure also is horrible. I’ve had to rewatch hour long videos for overrating hours because their website doesn’t save that I watched it even after following their specific rules. They also have typos in their questions and just generally seems so unprofessional. Also, every time I call them I swear it’s the same person with the same accent but they just change their name for every call. Just super suspicious. Go somewhere else please!!!! I’m trying to see if I can get my money back ):

Monica Smith deserves a raise! Since February, I have been in a battle between Texas Teachers and my previous EPP. My previous EPP apparently only keeps records for five years at a time, which makes no sense to me. So, when it came down to completing my transfer form, they were able to complete all of it except one simple checkbox. Texas Teachers could not accept the form as incomplete, and my previous EPP could not provide the needed information. After dozens of phone calls and emails between myself, Texas Teachers, my previous EPP, and even TEA, I was at a standstill. Through the emails and phone calls, I had been told thirty different things that all boiled down to the fact that I might not be able to become a teacher at all. From the moment she answered the phone, I could tell she cared. After I gave her the same backstory that I had to give all the others, she seemed genuinely invested. She then told me that she was going to work a little on the back end and that she would call me back. A few hours went by, and I went back to work, subbing with my phone in my pocket and one AirPod in my ear. The end of the school day came and I was quite irritated. Monica called me a couple of hours later with some unexpected news. She single-handedly fixed the problem. She called my previous EPP, and in what one can only assume is “Monica Magic,” fixed it. And I am so grateful!! Monica has no idea how much she has helped me. I am so excited to be able to take my next steps. Thank you, Monica!!

An absolute joke! Please don't apply with these people. They should be shut down. I would give no stars but I had to at least give one. They are misleading, awful at communicating, and unsupportive. Worst of all their "advisors" are nothing more than call representatives selling a pitch to you. This is not a program that betters you or helps you become a teacher. Instead, it's a parasite wanting to suck you for more money. In addition, if you have a learning disability they will not accommodate and nor will Pearson.. they don't abide by what they are teaching! I WILL NEVER RECOMMEND THIS PROGRAM TO ANYONE!!!! My college advisor recommended I apply here, I'm calling them back and telling them not to advise other students to come. They ruined my job opportunity instead of helping me obtain it... this is a program not to keep funding...

Sin, my advisor, was exceptional in every way. She went above and beyond to provide me with necessary information, patiently guiding me through my next steps, and made me feel truly valued. Her dedication and follow up are remarkable. I’m excited and confident to embark on my next step of my teaching journey. This program is perfect for working professionals like me, who need the flexibility the program offers, in order to pursue becoming a certified teacher.

My experience with Michelle from the Ohio branch of Teachers of Tomorrow was nothing short of excellent. From the moment I reached out, she exuded professionalism, warmth, and a genuine eagerness to assist me. Michelle's depth of knowledge about the education system was astounding; she effortlessly answered every question I had, even ones that stumped the Department of Education. Her explanations were thorough, clear, and delivered with a personal touch that made our interactions enjoyable. Thanks to Michelle, what could have been a frustrating experience turned into a productive and enlightening one. I highly recommend her to anyone navigating the complexities of obtaining a teaching license.
