Note from the President

As teachers and office staff, students and parents come to you for answers. But sometimes, you’re the one with the questions. Abeka’s on-campus Teachers Clinic provides training and tips that give you the support you need.

Through sessions and classroom observation, secondary, elementary, kindergarten, and nursery teachers gain practical training for specific age groups. Office staff will learn tips for procedures, records, orientation, and more.

You’ll leave with ideas for teaching, class procedures, and classroom management you can put into practice right away. Even experienced teachers find new ideas and inspiration—just like the other thousands of educators who’ve attended from across the world.

Come glean from over 70 years of teaching experience. You’ll find Teachers Clinic a real benefit to your ministry.

Troy A. Shoemaker, Ed.D.
President
