Full-Year Internship
Our internships are full-year, hands-on practical experiences. We place you in schools working under the mentorship of experienced teachers. Together, you and the other members of your cohort will each spend 1,000 hours with students in school learning the profession and sharpening your skills as an educator.
Join a Small Cohort and Learn from Accomplished Faculty
Our distinct approach focuses on social justice, social-cultural models of teaching and learning, proficiency-based learning, and case study methodology.
Your cohort will experience the sequence of courses and internships together learning from nationally acclaimed professors who are top scholars and researchers in the field. The support and dynamics of your cohort are an essential part of your success. The small cohort size also results in seminar-style classes where we model what you will practice with students in your internship. Expect to participate in collaborative, hands-on learning and co-teaching experiences in your classes.
