Job description

YPP STEM Literacy Instructor
The Young People's Project (YPP) is on a mission to change the landscape of who participates in the learning and teaching of STEM education in Boston, Cambridge and Somerville Massachusetts. YPP is committed to working with populations of students who have historically been on the bottom, especially in STEM. YPP understands that part of the solution to the problem of improving STEM education access and outcomes for populations of students who are being left behind lies within the students themselves, who we view as valuable assets. YPP has over 20 years of experience engaging and employing young people to work out of school to learn math well enough to teach, lead, and organize math literacy for their younger peers.
Relevance of the Position:
The purpose of a STEM Literacy Instructor is to guide and mentor a team of High School Math Literacy Workers (MLWs) through ongoing support, math and CS workshops, planning, and debrief sessions that will help them in their personal and professional development as learners, teachers, leaders, and organizers.
This work is at the frontier of STEM education in the country in that, by tapping into the energy of young people and the inherent influence they possess over one another, it seeks to provide a meaningful approach to the need in the country for quality math and computer science (CS) instruction for all children and particularly bottom quartile children.

  4. Become leaders in the classroom by helping to teach the material and manage a classroom.

In addition, STEM Literacy Instructors will occasionally provide support for special projects and will work with the local YPP Site Director to document and assess the quality of the program implementation.
