TRC Teaching

While at the MTC, you will teach several people at the TRC who will be themselves. Your teacher will provide information for each appointment in advance. Record these appointments in your daily planner during weekly planning.

Prepare for each visit by studying portions from the lessons in chapter 3 of Preach My Gospel and using TALL and your language study guide.

  • What were the person’s needs?

  • How can the lesson from chapter 3 of Preach My Gospel help meet his or her needs?

  • What actually helped the person?

  • What invitations were extended?

  • What can I improve in my teaching to better help others come unto Christ?

Set goals and make plans for improvement (e.g., improve language skills, learn doctrine, etc.) and record your goals in your daily planner.
