The Literacy Lab seeks Literacy Lab Fellow - $18/hour
The Literacy Lab Fellow is embedded in a classroom of children aged 3–5 to develop their early literacy skills in preparation for Kindergarten. Fellows are trained in research-based early literacy strategies and collaborate with the classroom teaching staff to enhance daily literacy opportunities and conduct literacy assessments. Fellows work to ensure that all students are prepared with the skills necessary to enter kindergarten. Fellows work 5 days a week, 5 hours per day, at a rate of $16.50 - $18.00 an hour (determined based on region), and receive rigorous, career-focused experience while shaping the academic and life trajectories of their students.
During the Fellowship, Fellows are supported throughout the process of applying for college, seeking employment opportunities in the education and nonprofit sectors, and continuously engaging with the community.
