Become a NYC Teaching Fellow.


The NYC Teaching Fellows program is a highly selective, innovative path to enter the classroom and make a difference in New York City's high-need schools.


Apply online today at http://www.nycteachingfellows.org to join a select group of talented mid-career professionals and recent graduates from all majors and backgrounds who will teach in the city's classrooms starting this Fall.


No previous teaching experience or education coursework is necessary. From over 80,000 applicants over the past five years, NYC Teaching Fellows has provided New York City classrooms with over 7,500 highly qualified new teachers. While teaching, Fellows pursue a Master's degree in Education that is subsidized by the NYC Department of Education.


A Math and Science Immersion program is available for those who wish to become a math or science teacher, but who did not major in those subjects.


The Fellowship includes:
+A competitive starting Salary plus Full benefits
+A subsidized Master's degree in Education
+Intensive pre-service training with living stipend
+Ongoing support


The Fellowship is now accepting applications for the 2006-2007 Midyear program. We are also accepting applications for the June 2007 program. For more detailed program information or to apply for either program, please visit our website at:
