Faculty fellows are not considered interns or student teachers; rather, they are treated as colleagues within their departments as they teach in lower school, middle school, or high school classroom settings under the mentorship of master teachers. Within the program of the school, the faculty fellow team teaches with a master teacher and, in a scaffold approach, assumes main teaching responsibilities throughout the school year under the master teacher\u0026rsquo;s guidance.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EAdditionally, fellows attend teaching seminars for professional development, assist in coaching, sponsor extracurricular activities each season, and go on mission trips during spring break. Applications for fellows\u0026rsquo; positions are reviewed for all academic departments and divisions. Faculty fellows are not normally reappointed to the faculty.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EAs an independent Christian School, Wesleyan seeks faculty who profess Christ as Lord and who are equipped to integrate this faith into their teaching. Wesleyan\u0026rsquo;s desire is to have faculty who give witness to the children through lives led and through sharing their own faith journey with students. Wesleyan School also seeks scholars who demonstrate the joy of life-long learning.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EThe hiring process involves a need for mutual commitment to the school\u0026#39;s educational philosophy and school mission.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EIf you are interested in applying for a position in the fellows program, please complete the\u0026nbsp;\u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/www.wesleyanschool.org\/about\/faculty-fellows\u0022 rel=\u0022noopener noreferrer\u0022 target=\u0022_blank\u0022 title=\u0022https:\/\/www.wesleyanschool.org\/about\/faculty-fellows\u0022\u003Efaculty fellows application\u003C\/a\u003E.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EThe deadline to apply for the 2020-2021 school year is February 14, 2020.\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EInternational applicants who have work visas may apply.\u0026nbsp; Wesleyan does not offer visa sponsorship.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EFor more information, contact:\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\nDonna Dixon, Faculty Fellows Coordinator for Recruitment\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\n\u003Ca href=\u0022mailto:ddixon@wesleyanschool.org\u0022 rel=\u0022noopener noreferrer\u0022 target=\u0022_blank\u0022\u003Eddixon@wesleyanschool.org\u003C\/a\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\n5405 Spalding Dr.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\nPeachtree Corners, GA 30092\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\n678-223-2125\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\n\u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/www.wesleyanschool.org\/about\/faculty-fellows\u0022 id=\u0022LPNoLP457778\u0022 rel=\u0022noopener noreferrer\u0022 target=\u0022_blank\u0022\u003Ehttps:\/\/www.wesleyanschool.org\/about\/faculty-fellows\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":"","field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"The Wesleyan Faculty Fellows Program at the Wesleyan School in Peachtree Corners, Georgia is designed to give one year of guidance, training, and experience to recent or soon to be college graduates considering teaching as a career."}],"uid":"33693","created_gmt":"2019-10-17 17:14:14","changed_gmt":"2019-10-17 17:14:14","author":"Kayleigh Haskin","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","dateline":{"date":"2019-10-17T00:00:00-04:00","iso_date":"2019-10-17T00:00:00-04:00","tz":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"hg_media":{"627740":{"id":"627740","type":"image","title":"Wesleyan School","body":null,"created":"1571332426","gmt_created":"2019-10-17 17:13:46","changed":"1571332426","gmt_changed":"2019-10-17 17:13:46","alt":"Wesleyan School Logo","file":{"fid":"239029","name":"download (1).png","image_path":"\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/download%20%281%29_0.png","image_full_path":"http:\/\/tlwarc.hg.gatech.edu\/\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/download%20%281%29_0.png","mime":"image\/png","size":61330,"path_740":"http:\/\/tlwarc.hg.gatech.edu\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/740xx_scale\/public\/images\/download%20%281%29_0.png?itok=0CGuXbAC"}}},"media_ids":["627740"],"groups":[{"id":"473211","name":"_OLD: School of History and Sociology Student Blog"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"166849","name":"HSOC Blog"},{"id":"737","name":"teaching"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[],"invited_audience":[],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
