Collins Avenue Resource Center Planned

Offering free resources for educators and business coaches, Teachers Mentors will open a new office in South Beach this year on Collins Avenue to aid in training, coaching and professional development. Providing in-depth advice, support and consulting, Teachers Mentors is targeting over a dozen key locations in South Florida to expand operations in the coming months.

The Collins Avenue Resource Center hopes to welcome dedicated professionals at the elementary, secondary and higher education levels who are interested in personal enrichment and professional excellence. With a goal to maximize teacher performance beyond the current thresholds, Teacher Mentors helps school systems exceed expectations by creating optimal teacher performance.

Based upon 2008 reports, the United States spent $10,995 per student on elementary and secondary education, which was 35 percent higher than the OECD average of $8,169. At the postsecondary level, U.S. expenditures per student were $29,910, more than twice as high as the OECD average of $13,461. Working in concert with these increased investments, Teachers Mentors provides performance assessments, professional educator workshops and targets specific areas of improvement to reach determined goals over the training period. Follow up classes, summer refreshers and skills-based evaluations help to ensure positive progress.

Teachers Mentors helps educators work harder and smarter, which benefits every student every day!
