Teach for India Fellowships 2020-22 (Apply Now)
About the Fellowship
Teach For India Fellows commit two years, full-time, to providing their students with the opportunities that can put them on a different life path. The Fellowship journey is one of teaching and learning, of working for children while developing your leadership. Our Fellows are on a mission to end educational inequity for their children, and through this, they develop a long-term commitment to multiplying that impact as Alumni.
Each Fellow is assigned a classroom in one of Teach For India’s placement cities and charged to teach academics, values and mindsets and to give their students the access and exposure they need to reach their personal, long-term visions. Our framework for leadership at Teach For India is called the Leadership Development Journey, and is centred around three commitments:
- The Commitment to Personal Transformation: Exploring who you are, your purpose, and striving to be a better person.
- The Commitment to Collective Action: Building relationships and organizing partners to multiply and deepen our impact.
- The Commitment to Educational Equity: Deepening our understanding of educational equity and committing to attaining it.
Remuneration
Teach For India Fellows will be paid a salary of Rs. 19,000 per month. If required to relocate from their home city, Fellows will be given a housing allowance ranging from Rs.5500 to 10,000, depending on the city in which they will stay. In addition, Fellows will receive an allowance for school supplies.
