POSITION DESCRIPTION – FELLOW ADVISOR

The Fellow Advisor (FA) is one of the key players in the Fellows’ training Institute and their readiness to enter the classroom. In addition to leading Framework sessions in the afternoons, each FA is responsible for observing Fellows during practice teaching and providing constructive feedback, and implementing interventions where necessary to ensure Fellows are developing the necessary skills in their practice teaching classrooms. Based on their observations, FAs are responsible for evaluating whether or not a Fellow has the potential to become an effective teacher in their first year.

FAs are experienced and successful teachers, who guide Fellows as they learn to set high academic goals, invest students in these goals, and work strategically to meet them. FAs bring in example materials, teaching strategies, and organizational routines from their own classrooms to bring our Teaching for Student Achievement curriculum to life, and show Fellows the specifics of how to teach for student achievement on a daily basis.
