TEACHING ASSOCIATE = ACHIEVEMENT COACH

Each Citizen Schools Teaching Associate guides a small group of students through activities designed to build students’ skills, provide access to community members, experiences and future possibilities, and inform their belief in the connection between hard work, education and future success. It’s amazing what you can achieve in the afternoon!

In addition, each Teaching Associate takes on one operational specialty:

  • Reaching out to families
  • Coaching volunteer teachers
  • Planning community events
  • Tracking student progress
  • Helping kids make the transition to high school and beyond
