Georgia Teaching Fellows Now Accepting Applications!
Transform your interest in education into a high-impact career. Learn more.
Georgia Teaching Fellows are accomplished professionals and recent graduates who commit to becoming exceptional teachers in our highest-need districts, including schools in Augusta, Atlanta and Columbus. With hands-on training, Teaching Fellows develop the skills to hit the ground running on day one and continue improving for years to come.
Great teachers have a huge and lasting impact on students’ lives, and students grappling with the challenges of poverty need great teachers most. That’s why our program is so selective –in 2013, only 8% of all Teaching Fellows applicants successfully met our standards for admission, training and entry into the classroom.
Successful Fellows:
Georgia Teaching Fellows is currently seeking candidates with the skills and content expertise required to teach the following critical-need subjects:
All teachers support students with learning disabilities, but as a special educator, you’ll get specialized training to ensure that these students get the excellent education they deserve. Special educators work in a wide variety of settings that may include working with a small group of 10-12 students in an independent classroom, co-teaching in a general education classroom, or a combination of the two. Fellows who are certified to teach special education are typically among our earliest Fellows to get hired because it is such a critical shortage area.
Apply now to join the ranks of this elite group of educators.
Application deadlines are:
