What is the role of the Teaching Fellow?
Teaching Fellows are advanced doctoral students who meet regularly with FEP interns during the semester and serve as liaisons between the site and HGSE. The TF approves the Internship Contract and Learning Agreement, facilitates seminar sessions, conducts a mid-semester site visit, and reads/grades final assignments in conjunction with the Faculty Supervisor. Additionally, the TF holds weekly office hours for interns who wish to discuss their progress at the site, reflect on the experience, or desire one-on-one contact for any other reason. Beyond this formal role, Teaching Fellows serve as a resource and a support throughout the semester if problems arise.
