What is BCTR?

Who We Want

• We want people with little or no teaching experience but who are driven to succeed.
• We want people who have excelled in school and in their careers.
• We want people who want to do something that matters for the students of Baltimore City.

There is no one profile for an ideal BCTR candidate; our Residents span a wide range of ages and backgrounds and bring to the program a diverse set of talents and skills. Strong candidates are those who are committed to having a positive effect on student achievement, who display excellence in their previous endeavors, and who are dedicated to reaching and influencing students – especially those in under-resourced areas – on a daily basis.
