Cons
This program is, in its very essence, a scam. Yes, people make it through this program and become certified teachers, and this is surely how they keep it running. The reality is that the majority of the people will be forced out before they are able to make it to the end of the program or the end of their first school year. I could conservatively estimate that fewer than 10% of our original cohort made it through to the end, and out of these, the percent that actually received their certification is even lower. As I attended meetings with less and less people in them, it became painfully apparently that all they were here do was take as much money from us as possible and then leave us to drown. It was sickening to see. I URGE you to reconsider if you're considering joining any of the TNTP cohorts. When I was choosing which certification program to join I saw all of the negative TNTP reviews and naively thought that it would somehow be different for me. Well, I was wrong. Again, if you are considering joining a TNTP cohort I strongly advise you to look into all other options first. I would not recommend TNTP anyone.
