UALIFICATIONS 1. What type of person is a good candidate for the Oakland Teaching Fellows program?
There is no one profile for an ideal Teaching Fellows candidate; Fellows come from a wide range of backgrounds and bring to the program a diverse set of talents and skills. Strong candidates are those who are committed to having a positive effect on student achievement, who display excellence in their previous endeavors, and who are dedicated to reaching and influencing students—especially those in under-resourced areas—on a daily basis. We are looking for candidates who will make a lasting commitment to OUSD, the students, and the community.
