What Instructors are saying now

Hello,

 

My team on deployment has been put in charge of creating Lesson Plans for already provided POI for a counter terrorism course we are teaching in the Middle East. I am not familiar with what a typical Lesson Plan looks like, and wanted to provide my Soldiers a blank document/example of what a ...

I am currently serving as an instructor in OSUT for just short of a year and a half. I have been selected to be an ALC instructor (MOS 19k) and was curious of how this will if any affect career progression. I have already completed the criteria and have earned my basic army instructor badge in curre...

Hello fellow Rallypoint friends! A little over a year ago I posted a question about who to contact for proposing changes to allow for retroactive award of the BAIB for prior Instructors.

I recently submitted an inquiry to HRC Awards and Decorations Branch, asking how to go about submitting a petition for exception to policy in awarding the Basic Army Instructor Badge to all former Instructor/Writers, whom to contact with such a request, and what supporting documentation should be su...

I want to be a better teacher for my soldiers, it's something that I'm really passionate about. I know that the Basic Instructor Course is geared toward adult education techniques and seems like a great course to sharpen my skills as an NCO. But, is it worth going to if I have no intention of becomi...

I was wondering what everyone's experience was as an instructor in BLC, ALC, or in general at the school house or MSI. I am in Italy, coming up on 15 years and looking at my potential next position and instructor interests me. Pros/Cons; will it put me ahead of the curb when it comes to getting lo...

Recently I was walking around Bliss and noticed a 1LT wearing his NG Master recruiting badge. Officers are allowed to only wear the NG Master badge in recruiting as a permanent badge. Senior and basic are not authorized. It got me thinking... is the Army Instructor badge permanent? Like the AC recru...

We are heading to benning in August and I was curious if housing on post is worth it. I live on post at fort Campbell now and it’s not too nice. Also what is around the benning area to do? Places to eat? Last thing, is there anything I should know before hand about the base itself/the possible job I...

Is there a regulation that states once you are disqualified from either drill sergeant duty, recruiter duty, or AIT platoon sergeant duty that you can NEVER work on a tradoc base such as Fort Huachuca? Additionally if you are disqualified from one of these duties can you still put in an instructor p...

More than a few times I've been passed off a failed mission job or tasking to complete where the previous leader simply couldn't make it happen or otherwise the tasking or mission just wasn't set for success

 

Today will be my first time to do it in the civilian setting

 

In the past I learned what ...

This is for all instructors out there, both active and prior, as well as civilian counterparts. Though not all-inclusive, I compiled a tentative list of questions I'd like to hear your answers on. Please include additional input as you see fit.

 

How do you prepare to instruct your people?

Is it just me or has anyone else seen the huge impact that society is now making on our military culture? From my point of view Society has no idea what it takes for civilians to be transformed into Soldiers. It is a mind set and physical conditioning to say the least that must take place for a civi...
