What is Texas Teaching Fellows?

Texas Teaching Fellows is a highly selective non-profit alternative certification program dedicated to bringing achievement-oriented individuals into Texas’ most high-need schools and subject areas. Practice teaching in a summer school classroom, combined with our rigorous training during the school year, helps our Fellows to be effective in the classroom from day one. Fellows earn their certification during their first year of teaching, and are eligible for a standard teaching certificate by the end of the school year. Click here for a TTF flyer.

Being a Fellow

Becoming a Texas Teaching Fellow means joining an elite group of individuals who are driven by the mission of closing the achievement gap in Texas’ most high-need subject areas, with students most in need of high-quality teachers. Fellows unilaterally describe their experiences as “challenging,” “life-changing,” “rewarding,” and “inspiring.” Being a Texas Teaching Fellow means being part of the network of Fellows Programs across the country, working together as part of a movement to improve education for all students.
