About The Position
California Teaching Fellows Foundation (CTFF) is a nonprofit that develops individuals for expanded learning tutoring roles supporting TK–12 students across six counties.

Fellows attend monthly staff meetings and scheduled training, contribute suggestions about program decisions, and follow directions from site leadership or a liaison.
