The author, who entered the Israeli education system as an idealistic recruit and left it after two years of swimming unaided in the 'shark pool', proposes an idea which he feels will help lower the high attrition rate for new teachers entering the Israeli education system. He proposes implementing a three year apprenticeship system to allow new teachers to serve as teaching assistants for the first three years, gradually taking individual classes first with and later without supervision. He sees this idea as superior even to the mentorship programs presently used by some schools.
