Become a Teacher in Las Vegas!

We Are Who  
Nevada Teacher Corps prepares individuals without teaching certification to become teachers for the students who need them most – those in our most underserved communities, where systemic inequities and individual prejudices deny too many children access to a great education. Through Nevada Teacher Corps, you will elevate your academic and professional expertise into a high-impact career as a certified Elementary Education teacher in Clark County Public Schools and various charter schools in the Las Vegas area.  
 
Why Las Vegas  
Nevada Teacher Corps (NTC) is a  two-year ambitious, teacher-centered effort to invigorate underserved Nevada schools with great teaching. NTC provides a diverse and passionate group of mission-driven aspiring teachers an affordable and accelerated pathway to the classroom.  
We recruit, train, certify and support accomplished professionals, recent college graduates and graduating seniors who aren’t yet certified as teachers, but possess the dedication and content knowledge to teach in some of the highest-needs schools. We provide the training, coaching and development needed to provide our students a quality education. 
You may have built a successful career, and now wish to use those skills to impact our next generation. You could be an accomplished recent graduate who wants to share your passion for learning with the students of Baltimore City. Whatever your background, you have high expectations for all students and are deeply invested in ensuring all students have access to the education they deserve. 

We are currently seeking outstanding candidates to teach Elementary Education.   
Benefits of Nevada Teacher Corps  

Community-Focused: As an international destination, Las Vegas is rich in diversity. Nevada Teacher Corps works across every level of our education system.

Classroom-Centered Preparation: Our support is radically simple: focused practice on key skills, knowledge, and mindsets to get new teachers off to a strong start. Where traditional teacher preparation leaves little time for hands-on skill-building, our innovative training is centered around actual teaching experience and focused practice on core skills, such as reflecting on students’ values, experiences, and ambitions to create opportunities for students to see themselves in challenging content that will prepare them for success.  
  
Certification that Counts: Throughout your first year in the classroom, we carefully assess and support your growth, with expert coaching and personalized support. Nevada Teacher Corps Fellows are recognized not simply as certified teachers, but as having a proven track record of classroom success.  
  
Full Salary and Benefits: Nevada Teacher Corps Fellows begin earning a full teacher's salary plus comprehensive benefits while pursuing certification when they start in their own classroom at the beginning of the 2022-23 school year.
