Google and Teach for America Partnership

Teach for America (TFA) and Google have teamed up.

Our partnership enables college grads to get real-world experience and to bring the insight and experience they gain in the classroom to bear in their work at Google. By joining forces, Google and TFA will be able to attract individuals who are capable of the hard work, commitment, and creativity it takes to teach and to be a Googler.

This is something I might consider down the line for myself actually. I really like teaching, but I know it’s something I couldn’t do day-in-day-out for the rest of my life. Maybe for a couple years, I might be able to. I have a friend that used to work as an engineering security expert on the website of Bank of America, but now he teaches in Northern California teaching for TFA.

It’s an awesome program and everyone should consider it if you are remotely interested in teaching.
