frequently asked questions (FAQs)
- Q => Will Teach For India be offering support during Selection and Matriculation?
A => We have a dedicated team to support you in your Assessment Center, Matriculation, and address any concerns you have over any other aspect of the Fellowship. As we, and you, are operating remotely, a lot of our support during this time will be virtual (e.g. video conferencing, phone calls, and emails). Where we would normally meet you in person – for example at Assessment Centres and Matriculation events – we are set up to offer similar experiences in different ways (e.g. webinars, 1:1 virtual interactions, and phone calls). - Q => Will Institute be canceled? If not, should I book my tickets?
A => No, we do not plan to cancel Institute. But, instead of the two that we usually have, we will only have 1 Institute this year. We are looking at bringing to you the first-ever virtual Institute. While this will be similar to the in-person, full-time Institute experience, we are exploring means of blended learning as well.
We also recommend that Fellows are within their placement cities by July 6th. Arriving within placement cities, by that date, will allow you multiple benefits. On the one hand, you’ll be able to access in-person meetings – if state guidelines permit – with your Program Managers and Regional Teams. You’ll also get the opportunity to interact, via small groups screened for safety and socially distanced, with your peers. On the other hand, you’ll be in close proximity to the students you’ll be teaching.
