Are you curious about teaching as a career or eager to explore what it means to teach, learn, and lead? Join us for a weeklong immersive program designed for future educators and those considering the teaching profession.
Participants will:
- Explore Teaching as a Career: Gain insights into teaching as a professional path and what it means to “know your students.”
- Develop Key Skills: Take part in mini-courses focused on understanding the teaching profession, lesson planning, and classroom dynamics.
- Apply Knowledge in Practice: Create and deliver engaging, student-centered lessons, building confidence and experience in a supportive environment.
This program is offered in collaboration with the Summer Literacy Program and epiSTEMic Summer, providing participants with the opportunity to connect with real-world teaching experiences and interdisciplinary approaches.
Discover the joy of teaching and inspire the next generation with the Pre-College Teacher Academy!
The Pre-teacher Academy will run during Session I: Sunday, July 13 – Saturday, July 19, 2025.
