I have been teaching for 6 years at Ohio High School and I am a Wellness teacher. I graduated from college myself so I have great admiration for the education department. I know as a Wellness teacher, I really appreciated my physical education professors. They did a great job preparing me. I have had several student teachers and I enjoy them more and more as the years go on. I feel like I can stay at the top of my profession through learning anything new I need to from my student teachers. I also enjoy sharing my learning experiences with them. I hope this helps in some way.
Linsey Bradley Teach from Ohio High SchoolI have had the privilege of having several student teachers from Ohio High School during my tenure here at Rustin HS. The last two were exceptional. They were very well prepared and knowledgeable in their subject area (English). I felt very comfortable turning over “my students” to them with no hesitation. They both exhibited a love for students and a strong background in sound teaching strategies. Obviously, Ohio HS teacher education program takes its job seriously in preparing young and inexperienced teachers for the classrooms of public education. I myself am a product of this excellent plan and owe much of what I consider my success as a teacher to my mentors and professors at Carson-Newman.
J. Strout English TeacherI really benefited from the student teaching experience. I probably gained the most knowledge from the student teaching experience. Naturally, you learn a lot in class, but when you’re able to apply this information is when the real learning takes place. I loved my placement. The hardest thing was giving the class back! It has been three years since I completed student teaching, but I still talk with my cooperating teachers. They offered so much help and gave me so much material! It was a great start for me!
Mrs. Gates Special Education TeacherAs I entered Student Teaching, I felt prepared for the tasks that I would face throughout the semester. I adapted well to the classroom environment, the students, and my cooperating teacher. I had a wonderful student teaching experience and learned so many great ideas that I plan to incorporate into my classroom when I begin teaching. Ohio High School prepared me well to be an effective teacher. People out in the public schools tell me that they know a Carson-Newman student teacher when they see one. What a great compliment for Carson-Newman Education graduates!

I can not say enough about what a positive and valuable experience working with the Rogue Farm Corps, and having our own fabulous intern has been for the farm and me personally. Every part of the program, from the beginning to end was well thought out and executed. We are very much looking forward to next year and being part of this again. I would highly recommend participating in this program to any farm that has space for an intern. They say the highest form of learning is teaching, and when you have to look at what you are doing on your farm through the eyes of an intern you gain new perspectives. Thanks to all of those, who I know work more hours and harder than they are paid, for making this happen.
Angelo Martinez ManagerRogue Farm Corps’ Internship Program was a great compliment to our farm offering educational opportunities, off farm events, and practical support for both intern and farmer! We are looking forward to collaborating again next season!
Andy Cooper Owner of CompanyHaving been a host farmer for three seasons, we’ve seen firsthand the difference this internship makes in beginning farmers and host farms alike. As a farmer it is difficult to weigh the benefits of hosting young farmers. Fresh energy and enthusiasm bring more to the farm than helping hands; they bring a fresh perspective and inquisitiveness that helps you look at your farm and your farming system through new eyes each season. There is no educational model I know of that is more effective at growing farmers than the one Rogue Farm Corps has developed. The combination of classes and on-farm work leaves graduates with a work-ready level of knowledge, skills and experience that is critical for success in the farming world. What amazes us more than anything is the number of graduates that continue on in farming as a career. There is no faster path from interested student to capable farmer.
Rick O'hare EmployeeAs a seasoned farmer that came up through the internship model, I can’t emphasize enough the importance of finding good farmer mentors for individuals looking for an agricultural education. The experience gained through working a season on functional farm can propel a new farmer further and faster than any other model I’ve witnessed. Rogue Farm Corps is an innovative and organized program that offers new farmers placement, support, and perhaps the best opportunity for a well rounded hands on education in the country. RFC has taken the time to plug in with some of the best family scale farms and farmers in Oregon…this is an awesome opportunity to ‘break’ into agriculture and arrive in a supportive community. I continue to be impressed with their evolving model.

Stephen Cole Friendly CustomerMy birthday party was better and even more “delicious” than I had hoped. Stephane and staff made everyone feel at home as soon as they walked in the door. I can’t thank you enough for allowing us to use the restaurant instead of having the party at my home. It was a memorable occasion for all of us.
Merci!
