What is a teacher council meeting?
A teacher council meeting is a meeting where those called to teach in the Church gather to learn principles of Christlike teaching.
In these meetings, teachers learn principles of Christlike teaching from Teaching in the Savior’s Way. In addition, they learn from each other and share their experiences, concerns, and possible solutions. All participants are encouraged to study the topics in Teaching in the Savior’s Way and come to the meeting prepared for discussion.
Teacher council meetings do not provide a course that ends after a certain number of lessons have been taught. Because the effort to become a Christlike teacher is a lifelong pursuit, members should attend teacher council meetings as long as they have a calling to teach.
