Amanda Brueggeman is an education consultant whose work centers on literacy, collective efficacy, and the support of new teachers and the mentors who guide them. She began her teaching career in 2004 and brings nearly two decades of classroom and coaching experience to that work. Lindsay Prendergast has two decades of experience in global education. She began her career as an alternatively certified special education teacher, an experience she draws on in this book. Today, as co-founder of EdHabits consulting, she collaborates with organizations, districts, and schools around the world to advance equitable teaching and learning. Lindsay Deacon is a nationally recognized instructional coach, professional learning facilitator, and author with more than two decades of experience in K–12 education. She is the founder of Next Adventure EduCoaching, through which she provides coaching, workshop facilitation, and program evaluation for educators across North America.

"In district after district, I meet teachers who arrived by an alternative route and found a support system designed for someone else. Brueggeman, Prendergast, and Deacon take the more useful position: A prior career is an instructional asset, not a gap to close. Written for those teachers, this book is just as valuable to the mentors, coaches, and leaders who shape their first years."—Allison Rodman, Founder, The Learning Loop; author of Personalized Professional Learning and Still Learning"Teachers entering the profession through alternative pathways can often feel isolated and in waiting for someone to provide answers to the challenges they are already encountering. Brueggeman, Pendergast, and Deacon do not pretend to offer every answer. Instead, they provide something more empowering: a thoughtful and practical guide that helps alternatively certified teachers recognize how their prior careers, experiences, and skills can become some of their greatest strengths in the classroom. As a veteran educator who entered teaching through an alternative pathway, I wish I had possessed this book when I began my journey. Now, as an educational leader in Peer Assistance and Review, I would confidently recommend it to educators at every stage of the alternative certification journey."—M. Scott Kopf, Coordinator, St. Louis Plan (Peer Assistance and Review)“Stepping into teaching from another career often feels like performing without a script. The authors decode the unwritten rules of school life for career-changers, showing us how our past work experience is actually our greatest asset. Packed with practical tools and real-life experience, this is the ultimate guidebook for setting up a successful classroom beyond just surviving day one.”—Amberlynn Morgan, Alternatively Licensed 6th-Grade Teacher
