What is Texas Teaching Fellows?
Who We Want
“Fellows are very diverse, professional, and all have the same passion for teaching.”
-Texas Teaching Fellow
A typical Texas Teaching Fellow is anything but “typical.” We know that individuals from a variety of backgrounds have a wealth of experience to share with Texas students. This holds true whether you have worked in finance or managed your own business, or whether you have just graduated from college or been in your career for years. As the slides below show, our Fellows possess a broad range of backgrounds and skills. Here are a few statistics regarding our 2010 Fellow cohort:
We look for a group of diverse and inspiring individuals who will be drawn together by the common qualities they possess: commitment and excellence.
“I've been really impressed with the quality of teacher that TTF attracts and creates. Fellows are not just well-qualified in their content areas, but genuinely care about improving the opportunities for and well-being of their students. My peers are also helpful and friendly, and we've spent much time together outside of classes. I've even got a Fellow for a roommate now!”
