Match Corps & Associate Teachers

Match offers several distinct opportunities for folks who are relative newcomers to our work in education reform:

• Match Corps is a yearlong education fellowship. Match Corps Members tutor small groups of students in grades 6-12 and partner closely with families. Tutors are integral members of high-performing school teams in some of the best schools in America and discover what it takes to change the lives of kids. Learn more about the role and responsibilities at GO Americorps Fellows.

• The Match Associate Teacher (MAT) Program prepares candidates with 1-2 years of prior student-facing experience to serve as highly effective first year teachers in charter schools and turnarounds. MATs are placed on grade-level (K-5th) or subject level (6th-12th) teams in Match Charter Public School for an intensive, year-long apprenticeship. Throughout the year, our associate teachers are coached and mentored by leaders and teachers at Match and slowly take on more classroom responsibilities.
