I received an e-mail today notifying that I have been accepted into the MfA Fellows Program.

www.mathforamerica.org

Basically it is a program that pays for my graduate school tuition plus stipend($90,000 in 5 years) for me to teach math in a New York City public high school.

Just wanted to share my joy with the TL community

PS: Is anyone here in the math/math education field?

Oh I saw a flyer for that in my physics department at www.umd.edu

It would have required me to teach in NYC so I didn't consider it, but I know that it could work out very well. I'll stick to teaching on long island though.

I taught and tutored all kinds of math for a year or two. Can't say I really enjoyed the experience, except when I was dealing with higher level math, like calculus, but those students were few and far between. Teaching is a bitch job, and teachers are seriously undervalued, especially in cities. But then again, free tuition. Best of luck, maybe you'll have a better time with it than I did =).

Oh and I do want to add that getting a free ride for 5 years in NYC sounds frigging awesome. Teaching HS is not my dream job, but for that kind of opportunity, I'd kill. Muchos congratulations.

I'm studying for my masters in Mathematics with an emphasis in college teaching.

Sounds like a nice thing you got there. Good luck with it.

I've always enjoyed math and teaching. Currently I'm a tutor for various college level math subjects, from remedial algebra to Calc II. It's always good to hear of another math guy.
