Subject: Socially-Minded Professionals Needed: Make Your Impact with NYC Teaching Fellows
Join a network of over 9,000 educators committed to creating a better future for the New York City students that need them most.
What is The NYC Teaching Fellows Program?
The NYC Teaching Fellows is preparing a critical mass of exceptional teachers committed to a better future for NYC students. This means our teachers go where they're needed the most - they teach in high-need communities; at schools with high populations of students with disabilities or English language learners; and in the Bronx where schools struggle to attract and retain quality educators. We know that when there are strong leaders are in the classroom, all students - no matter their circumstances - Âcan achieve and succeed.
Fellows who successfully complete our rigorous training program become full-time teachers within a few months of enrolling. They participate in an innovative, practice-based summer training program and then earn a subsidized master's degree in education while teaching in a New York City public school. Fellows train to teach in subject areas including math, science, special education, and bilingual education. Â
Who We Look For
