Teach for America

I drove on over to Charlottesville Wednesday night for my all-day Teach for American interview on Thursday. I spent all  night going over my lesson plans and readying myself for what I thought was going to be an intensely stressful day. Much to my surprise, it was anything but. Sure, there were some nerves on my part, but that’s to be expected, right? The interviewers, Maura and Steph, were nothing short of fantastic. They made us all feel at ease from the moment we walked in the door at 9am, right up until I walked out of my one-on-one interview at 5:15pm.

Have you considered joining the Peace Corps? Or maybe even the armed forces? If either of these seemed appealing at any time in your past, you should consider Teach for America. It’s a wonderful organization, with amazing core values and ideals.  Maybe you’ve never heard of it, and aren’t really sure what you’d like to do after college…

Still take some to check it out!
