When it comes to student success, nothing at school matters more than the quality of the teacher at the front of the class. TNTP's Teaching Fellows programs give talented professionals and recent graduates the skills and hands-on training they need to become great teachers.
Working in collaboration with urban districts nationwide, TNTP prepares new teachers to make a profound, long-term contribution to the district and its students. Each of TNTP's 14 programs works closely with its partner district to train teachers for key shortage subjects, such as math, science and Special Education.
TNTP's rigorous training program – beginning with intensive pre-service training and culminating in state certification – prepares new teachers to be effective in challenging school environments. At every step, TNTP ensures that only teachers who prove their ability to raise student achievement enter and remain in the classroom.
The New Teacher Project (TNTP) is a national nonprofit committed to ending the injustice of educational inequality. Founded by teachers in 1997, TNTP works with schools, districts and states to provide excellent teachers to the students who need them most and advance policies and practices that ensure effective teaching in every classroom. Since its inception, TNTP has trained or hired approximately 49,000 teachers, benefiting an estimated 8 million students nationwide.
