- A growing literacy rate

The Teach For India Fellowship is an opportunity for India’s brightest and most promising individuals, from a diverse range of universities and workplaces, to serve as full-time teachers to children from low-income communities in under-resourced schools.
“I knew that the problems I wanted to solve were much more complex than I could ever fathom but working at the grassroot level, understanding the communities and realities my kids come from, has been an eye-opener for me. The amount I’ve learned these past two years is beyond what I can put into words.”
