Teach First Deutschland is a German non-profit organization that started in 2008 and was adapted from Teach For America and Teach First. In an effort to help eliminate educational injustice, he recruited outstanding graduates from all subject areas and placed them for two years in challenging German schools.
Currently, ~ 120 graduates ("fellows") spend their two-year service in schools in the federal state of Baden-WÃÆ'ürttemberg, Berlin, Hamburg, North Rhine-Westphalia and Thuringia to improve student performance. Fellows are trained in a 3-month preparation phase.
While people are paid by participating states, this organization has been supported by various foundations (Bosch-, Hertie-, Vodafone- and ZEIT-Stiftung) as well as German businesses, among them Deutsche Post DHL, Lanxess, Haniel, Lufthansa, McKinsey & amp; Company and Siemens.
The Minister of Education of Berlin State assessed the impact of the program as far as "really positive".
Teach First Deutschland is a member of Teach For All, a global network of independent social companies working to expand educational opportunities.
