Four girls I know applied, one was selected to go to the interview and 5 min lesson plan, from there she recieved a rejection letter in the mail.
I have also decided to apply. My GPA might not be the best, but this past year of teaching in the larger more diverse schools in Lansing, I have decided that I want to help mold some children and make a difference in their life. I would also be able to get my teaching certificate (although I'm only 3 classes away from it) If I also get rejected, like most people do, I will move on and start my second bachelors in nursing.
I also incourage anyone and everyone to apply. Even if they arn't sure if it's what they want to do. Because it's about making a difference and letting some kids know that there is someone who believes in them and doesn't judge them. I really think TFA is a very valuable program
It's also a program that I would love to be a part of.
