CTFF seeks college students interested in teaching for fellowship
May 31, 2021
California Teaching Fellows Foundation, the largest education sector college internship employer, is accepting applications to hire 500-plus college students interested in exploring careers in education, and who have a passion for serving the community and its youth. Teaching Fellow positions will serve K-12 school sites transitioning back to in-person learning along with robust support programs for students and educators at over 50 school districts in Fresno, Merced, Madera, Tulare and Kings counties this fall. Professional training for new hires begins early August, with onsite work starting once the new school year begins. Teaching Fellows are paid above minimum wage and receive training, enrichment and valuable school site work experience. Online applications can be found at www.ctff.us/application.
Driven by its mission to inspire next-generation leaders with a passion for teaching and learning, while positively impacting the lives of youth, CTFF provides important expanded learning support for K-12 students and schools. CTFF connects passionate, diverse and trained Teaching Fellows with school sites to provide supplemental classroom, after school and summer program instruction, tutoring and mentorship.
Teaching Fellow applicants must be enrolled in a minimum of six units at a community college or university and be in good academic standing. Previous classroom experience is not required; CTFF trains each Teaching Fellow to fully prepare them for working directly with school site students, as well as provides site supervisors and reporting measures to help ensure success for all.
“California Teaching Fellows Foundation is committed to developing future teachers and leaders who contribute to positive changes in the lives of students, their schools and their communities,” said Mike Snell, CEO of California Teaching Fellows Foundation.
