NORTHWOOD, N.D. Eighteen-year-old Logan Sherva is undecided about pursuing a career in teaching, but a new course at Northwood Public School this year gave him practical experience and insights he’ll use to eventually make a decision.
Sherva is among eight students enrolled in the “Introduction to Teaching” class offered by Sara Tezel, an English teacher. Her goal was to expose students to a profession in which they may have an interest as a possible career option.
