The Learning Project Elementary School, Boston, MA
Elementary School Teaching Fellow (Grades 1-6): Two-Year Paid Fellowship
The Learning Project Elementary School is located in Boston’s Back Bay and is an independent day
school for grades K-6. We maintain a strong foundation in character education, uphold high standards
for academic performance, and maintain a strong commitment to enrolling a diverse community of
students and families.
We are looking for Teaching Fellows who are interested in launching their careers as educators. The
Teacher Training Fellowship Program is an opportunity to work one-on-one with an experienced Head
Teacher who helps to train Fellows directly in the classroom to be skilled, well-rounded teachers.
Participants are also guided by the Fellowship Director who leads weekly seminars to further their
professional development and build their support network. In addition, Teaching Fellows supervise
children in the After School Program, enriching their experience with an opportunity to work with
students at multiple grade levels.
Upon satisfactory completion of year one, Fellows are offered a stipend increase and a second year
placement at the school with a different grade level in order to broaden their experiences, apply their
knowledge and new skills, and take on more leadership responsibilities in the classroom and at the
school. Enjoy learning more about the teaching profession and building your teaching skills in a tight-knit
community of dedicated teachers and staff members at a school with a 51-year track record of
excellence in the heart of Boston.
