Position Overview

This is a full-time faculty position for an instructor and advisor in Bank Street's Adolescent Math Teaching Fellows Program. Currently, this program is an onground program with some experiences happening online. The position encompasses course instruction, and may include field supervision, and/or administrative program support. The Adolescent Math Teaching Fellows Program is a new transitional certification program that Bank Street is launching in summer 2025 in partnership with NYC Public Schools (NYCPS). The role at a future time may include teaching and advising in residency and/or more traditional pathways in a range of online and/or on-campus adolescent or all-grades programs.
Candidates must have depth of experience teaching secondary mathematics, ideally in public school settings, as well as demonstrated experience with progressive pedagogies. Experience teaching adolescents with disabilities and adolescents who are English language learners is preferred.

Bank Street College is not a tenure-granting institution, nor does it have traditional professorial ranks. The position is eligible for a renewable 3-year contract pending a review period.
