Berkeley Teacher Education Program Faculty Advisors (formally titled Supervisors of Teacher Education) support the learning of teacher education students through teaching, field support, and cycles of reflection and improvement. They also participate in program development and relationship building with local schools, districts, and communities. Faculty Advisors support a cohort of graduate students as they engage in coursework and fieldwork leading to a preliminary teaching credential and a Master’s degree in Education. They teach theory, methods, and field practicum courses, and participate in committees that focus on the activities and goals of the teacher education program.

Faculty Advisors must have a demonstrated commitment to educational equity and justice, a strong track-record in K-12 schooling and teacher education, and a critical understanding of how blending theory and practice improves outcomes for teacher candidates, teachers and K-12 students. In addition, Faculty Advisors must show excellence in teaching both adult learners and beginning teachers.

Additional compensation will be provided for work with cohorts before the start of the fall semester and after the end of the spring semester.

We are looking for Faculty Advisors in the following credential areas:

Elementary / Multiple Subjects
Secondary English Language Arts
Secondary Mathematics and Science
Secondary Social Studies
