Team Leaders, teacher-mentors who work directly with the students, are critical to our success. Dynamic, creative, and committed, they direct group activities, as well as provide focused individual attention.

These interactions form strong bonds that can positively influence children's lives.

The position is part time—about 22 to 30 hours a week—and completely immersive. Team Leaders are role models, advisers, and cheerleaders. It's challenging, fun, and infinitely rewarding.

As a Team Leader you will:

• Craft engaging curricula
• Design and implement team activities
• Serve as an academic coach
• Lead students on off-site adventures
• Facilitate hands-on apprenticeship projects
• Collaborate with teachers and parents.

Being a Citizen Schools Team Leader is the best kind of adventure. It's a chance to explore a career in teaching or working with young people. You'll become part of a new, vibrant community, one that not only includes your fellow Team Leaders and Citizen Schools volunteers, but also teachers, parents, and, of course, the students themselves.
