Summer Teaching Internship

2012-11-19T18:38:50Z

Northfield Mount Hermon School is an independent, coeducational boarding school in western Massachusetts.
Each summer, we hire experienced teachers (master teachers) and teaching interns to help us deliver the outstanding variety of courses and activities that set NMH Summer Session apart from other summer academic programs. Teaching interns assist an
experienced teacher with classroom teaching of morning major courses, live in and help run dorms, and take charge of afternoon minor courses and sports.

Our summer internship program is designed for undergraduates who, as a minimum, will have completed their junior year in college by the upcoming summer and for graduate students and recent college graduates. One particular characteristic of our Summer
Session student population is its diversity (more than 24 U.S. states and 37 countries were represented last summer), and we are especially interested in hiring an equally diverse group of teaching interns.

Although there is a February 1, 2012, deadline, job offers may be made on a rolling basis. Therefore, candidates should submit application materials as soon as possible.

Information about the NMH Summer Session and our Teaching Intern Program application packet are also available at [ http://www.nmhschool.org/summer ]www.nmhschool.org/summer. If your school has a website on which we could list our internships, please
let us know the procedure for posting a listing.
