Benefits of Serving

Career Development

Driving Your Growth

Whether your ultimate goal is to become an educator or to simply learn valuable skills that will enhance your professional profile, the GO program will sharpen many of your abilities, including:

Delivering Instruction
Critical Thinking
Public Speaking
Problem Solving
Professionalism

No matter which GO partner school you are placed with, you will have access to school administrators and educators who can provide knowledge and guidance about teaching in under-resourced communities and help you gain confidence as a young professional. This experience will help you strengthen your leadership skills and will set you up for success in your future career.

Community

Enriching Your Experience

A year or semester of tutoring in under-resourced communities can be an intense experience, but in addition to impacting the lives of your students, one of the most rewarding aspects of the job is the relationships you form along the way. As a GO tutor, you’ll benefit greatly from being connected to the community of your peers. Whether it is through your school, or at networking events, you’ll develop camaraderie with other tutors that provides support as you navigate the challenges of your service year together. You may even make some lifelong friends!

Post-Tutoring

Broadening Your Impact

As part of our effort to build a diverse workforce of teachers who are equipped for culturally responsive teaching and committed to the development of their practice, we offer GO tutors the opportunity to continue the path to classroom teaching through an embedded teaching apprenticeship as part of your year of service.

The GO Teacher Residency can help you receive both your teaching certification and your Master of Arts in Teaching through our graduate school partnerships.
