I was thinking more along the lines of something useful- like allowing an associate teacher to run a class under the umbrella of a regular TCRG/ADCRG’s school. Many schools already let students teach classes alone on the sly- night as we’ll regulate it and make it legal! -- The New Irish Dance Message Board

In reply to: kind of like an apprenticeship 's message, "All TC candidates have to be sponsored by a TC. I know in our school, every former dancer has spent extensive time (years) teaching/assisting under the direction/guidance of our TCs." on 15:56:33 10/19/18 Fri

That's great if you have a relationship with your former TC. What about people who don't, or have moved? I had to approach TCRGs I'd never even met before to attend their ceili class and sign my forms. I don't disagree that the TCRG exam is not perfect, but a lot of good teachers would never have become teachers if they had to do what you suggest. (NT) -- ., 06:45:53 10/30/18 Tue
