TRAINING TEACHERS, REACHING OUR STUDENTS

Thanks to YOU, MEF has trained 151 teachers in its Teacher Induction Program, which has grown significantly since its founding in 2008

TIP is launched as a year-long course deeply rooted in Torah-true educational philosophy using best educational practices. Program is certified by Medgar Evers City College of New York City.
TIP alumni Rabbi Mendy Yusewitz and Rabbi Levi Eisenberg join the program staff to facilitate speakers and presenters.
MEF partners with the Jewish New Teacher Project to train experienced teachers in the skills needed to bring out the best in other teachers. Each TIP participant is matched with a personalized JNTP-trained coach.

TIP is established as a three-month summer course for new teachers to train them in best educational practices.
TIP pilots the DaniEL Kahalani Student Teaching Initiative that pairs new teachers with an experienced mentor who observes and coaches them weekly. Expert presenters from a wide range of educational backgrounds are brought in to speak to participants.
Drawing once again from its own pool of talent, TIP recruits Rabbi Zelig Silber, who was trained in TIP’ s original summer course to direct the program. The program uses the Danielson Framework to develop a yearlong curriculum.
Over 50 TIP alumni gather for a reunion event.
