Teach

Aspire seeks to equip young people with the tools necessary to bring new ideas to classrooms and communities. Aspire develops their awareness of the components of a high-quality education, thereby leading them to be effective advocates for education and to consider teaching as a career.

Aspire teachers are high school and college students, mentored by experienced educators who offer an introduction to teaching. In six weeks, educators of all experience levels practice collaboration, innovation, and creativity in the classroom.

“As someone interested in law/public policy, this experience has given me a firsthand glimpse into issues that should be addressed [in the education system]. I want to use this knowledge to aid the black community in Cleveland going forward and learn more about restorative justice, breaking generational curses, and emphasize the power of education.”
