What’s an Instructional Coach?
Instructional Coaches (ICs) are current practicing classroom teachers looking to develop their mentoring and leadership skills.
During our Summer Scholars Program, ICs are responsible for mentoring 4-5 Teaching Fellows to guide them through lesson planning, classroom management, and assessment of students for one of our core subjects (i.e., math, ELA, social studies, and science).
Unsure about coaching, but still want to get involved? We also hire for a variety of administrative positions that involve IT, building curriculum, and supervising students and faculty.
Administrative Team members are early career educators, current practicing teachers, or graduate students with a desire to expand their leadership skills.
Expectations
Instructional Coaches and members of the Administrative Team make a nine-week commitment to the program, which consists of three weeks of training, five weeks of working the summer program, and half a week of wrap-up.
Instructional Coaches will:
Specialize in one core academic subject such as math, science, history, or English language arts.
Develop mentoring skills by inspiring, motivating, and supporting aspiring educators.
Coordinate the implementation of curriculum and assessment for middle school-aged students.
Administrative Team members will:
Lead professional development workshops, communicate with families, maintain a healthy academic and work environment, and manage operations within the program.
Provide insight, support, and motivation to the team of Teaching Fellows.
Plan special events and field trips that bring the community together and expose students to new opportunities.
