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.
in Afghanistan we have 20% literacy rate

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.
