At the Memphis Teacher Residency (MTR), we believe:
Educational inequality is one of today’s greatest civil rights issues
God calls us to love others and seek justice for all
Teaching children is one of the most important and noble professions
MTR a faith-based, non-profit organization founded in 2009 to recruit, train, and support effective teachers in a Christian context. We offer three ways to get involved in our mission of Christian love expressed in equal education: two summer fellowships for undergraduate sophomores & juniors and a teacher residency program for college graduates that provide top-notch support, training, and community.
Think God might be calling you to the classroom? We would love to connect with you!
