    Position: English Teacher: 8th Grade Adventure in the City Summer Program


    Liberty LEADS is a NYC-based college access program that has served over 200 underrepresented children between 5th and 12th grade each year since 1989. Liberty LEADS was founded to empower youth by helping them attain higher education, embrace leadership engagement, and create a positive future for themselves and others.

    Liberty LEADS provides an alternative learning environment in which young people can experience success as learners and increase their ability and motivation to graduate from high school and seek entry into postsecondary education and/or meaningful employment. The program is guided by the principle that all children have gifts, talents, and great potential and can contribute to one another's social and academic growth.


    We are looking for energetic and creative educators who enjoy working with youth during the summer and are available for in person programming.


    The Adventure in the City (AIC) Program is a summer program for current 8th graders (rising 9th graders). AIC combines High School Prep/Transition and English and focuses on building leadership skills and enhancing interpersonal relationships through the use of outdoor experiential education.

    Educators will deliver engaging, fun and exciting curricula to our students this summer by utilizing the outdoors to facilitate learning and will focus on cultivating skills such as critical thinking, problem solving and teamwork. The goal of the summer is to equip participants with the skills necessary to make a healthy transition from middle school to high school.

    This model uses a co-teaching model -(2 teachers total with one in each discipline)- High School Prep/Transition and English. The teachers will focus on cultivating skills necessary for a successful transition into high school. The English teacher will use the outdoor experiences to inform the implemented lesson plans while helping students prep for high school writing.


    We are looking for energetic and creative educators who enjoy working with youth during the summer and are available for in person programming.


    Selected applicants will be responsible for developing and implementing a 19-day, project-based curriculum.

Programming begins July 1st 2024 and meets Mondays through Wednesday the first week of July and Monday through Thursday for the following four weeks culminating with a final presentation on August 1st. All applicants must be available for all 19 days of programming from 9 am to 330 pm. Lunch is provided and spent with the students.
