The Grand View Teacher Education Program is committed to the preparation of ethical teachers of excellence within the liberal arts tradition. It is a dynamic and respected teacher-preparation program in the greater Des Moines area.

Education faculty, in partnership with practicing teachers, model effective teaching and classroom management behaviors. Students spend at least three semesters in supervised in-school settings in preparation for the student teaching experience. Critical thinking and problem solving strategies are emphasized, and students are coached in the development of a personal teaching philosophy and style.
