MLW JOB DESCRIPTION

Overview

Math Literacy Workers (MLWs) will learn and develop skills to facilitate effective math workshops/lessons. The MLWs are supported by other MLWs and college students (and in some cases classroom teachers) who collaborate in planning, debriefing, and implementing their math literacy workshops. YPPs goal is to ensure that MLWs understand that, for the purposes of equity, their work as near peer math facilitators who are from the same community as their students, is indispensable and vital to the broader education community.

Time Commitment (School Year and Summer):

  • 40 hours of training

  • 12-25 hours per week of programming (4-5 hours of plan/prep + 2.5 hours of workshop, set-up, debrief per week)

Compensation

  • $15 / hour

  • Payments every two weeks, from The Young People's Project Inc.

Job Description:

MLW will prep, plan, and debrief at their high school in teams of four, 4-5 hours per week. Additionally, MLWs should be prepared to facilitate math modules/workshops at their assigned middle school for 90 minutes per week plus 60 minutes to set-up/debrief.

  • Debrief (student's response to each activity, most/least effective, needs improvement)

  • Plan (revise / create lesson plans, assign roles, collect materials)

  • Practice & Professional Development (mock facilitate, give each other feedback)

  • Create or Design a new game or activity

  • Team building activities (with fellow MLWs, teachers, and staff)

  • Review training material or math content to ensure MLW understanding
