Teach For America’s Approach

TFA recruits outstanding leaders from all backgrounds and career sectors to become TFA “corps members.” Corps members commit to teaching for two years, where they are full, salaried employees of local public schools and confront both the challenges and joys of expanding opportunities for kids. Many choose to continue teaching after their two-year TFA commitment ends.

Corps members develop into strong classroom leaders who go beyond traditional expectations to advance students’ academic and personal growth while helping to strengthen schools. They work in the districts and schools most impacted by educational inequity.

In partnership with nonprofit organizations and businesses in the Twin Cities, corps members receive initial training, ongoing professional development, and access to an unparalleled resource and support network.

TFA has more than 3,000 corps members, reaching nearly 250,000 students in over 1,500 schools.

You'll be placed in your preferred region so long as there's space and you meet the local requirements. Read more below about our placement process.  

Corps Member Eligibility

To be considered for a position with TFA, you must have a bachelor’s degree with a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.50 and either have U.S. citizenship, national/legal resident status or be a DACA recipient or EAD holder. You are not required to have a background in education.

In addition to these eligibility requirements, we seek people who have a deep belief in the potential of every child, a strong record of achievement, and perseverance in the face of challenges, among other key values and experiences. Read more about the characteristics of strong corps members.

Teach For America’s Approach

TFA recruits outstanding leaders from all backgrounds and career sectors to become TFA “corps members.” Corps members commit to teaching for two years, where they are full, salaried employees of local public schools and confront both the challenges and joys of expanding opportunities for kids. Many choose to continue teaching after their two-year TFA commitment ends.

Corps members develop into strong classroom leaders who go beyond traditional expectations to advance students’ academic and personal growth while helping to strengthen schools. They work in the districts and schools most impacted by educational inequity.

In partnership with local universities such as the University of Pennsylvania Graduate School of Education and the Relay Graduate School of Education, nonprofit organizations, and businesses around Greater Philadelphia, corps members receive initial training, ongoing professional development, and access to an unparalleled resource and support network.

TFA has more than 3,000 corps members, reaching nearly 250,000 students in over 1,500 schools.
