I really enjoyed this website because it had so many different helpful components to it. The component I enjoyed the most was the lesson plans. There was everything that you could possibly need in multiple subjects. I really liked the ideas for math lessons because as a person who struggles with math, I think I will have a hard time teaching it. The links provided gave me great ideas and lesson plans to make math enjoyable for me and my students. Everything from games to creative ways to teach a subject were provided. As a teacher you can always use as much information as you can get. Kids get bored easily with the same old stuff, it's nice for them and for yourself to change it up a bit. This website helps you if your stuck and don't have any ideas. As a student and a tutor myself, I was glad to find links that help you with your homework. I am currently tutoring a foster child in algebra and need as much help as I can get. It is difficult to remember how to do problems when you haven't done them in so long. I can now use the "tutoring" links for my schoolwork and for my student's algebra work.
Another component I really liked was the evaluations. I can use these evaluations when I am grading my students and for my own schoolwork. To have a list of criteria it is easier to asses individuals appropriately. I also liked that everything on this website was already evaluated as good material, therefore your not searching and searching on the web for good lessons and tools for the classroom.
A few other components I would also like to mention are the job opportunities, conference dates, and current topics. It also had state standards listed and helpful links attached to those. Overall I found this website to be extremely helpful and I know I will use it for many different reasons in the future.
