College Graduates - Teacher-in-Residence - (New Haven, CT)

Start Date: July 1, 2019 Location: Brooklyn, NY; Providence, RI; Bridgeport, New Haven, and Hartford, CT We know the 1st year of teaching can be incredibly challenging. That's why we've created a program that pairs those new to the teaching field with a team of dedicated supports, coaches, and exemplary teachers from which to learn. The Teacher-in-Residence (TIR) program is a teaching opportunity designed specifically for those who want to start a career in education but have little to no teaching background. The TIR program provides a one-year pathway to become a lead teacher at Achievement 1st. During the course of the residency, TIRs receive high-quality professional development, work alongside our strongest teachers, and gain hands-on background in the classroom through co-teaching and small group instruction. TIRs gain increased responsibilities in classroom instruction throughout the year so that they are prepared to become lead teachers by the end of the year.
