Subject: Paid Summer Teaching Assistant Opportunity (July 9-20) for Biology Students

Hello,

I am the Communications Coordinator for the Abdul Latif Jameel World Education Lab (J-WEL) at MIT. Our Higher Education Collaborative, which is headed by Professor of Biology Hazel Sive, is looking for MIT undergrads going into their 3rd or 4th year (or graduate students who have knowledge of and experience with MIT undergraduate education) who are interested in TA’ing this summer for our Curriculum Design Workshop. I was wondering if you would be able to share this opportunity with students in your program via email or other means. Please let me know if you are able to do so. Thank you very much.
