Frequently Asked Questions

What will I teach at Summerbridge?

We encourage student teachers to teach what they are passionate about. In the past, student teachers have taught subjects as diverse as Sociology, Aviation, Product Design, and Hip-Hop Culture. Student teachers not only teach their subjects but also build English communication skills and life skills in their classes and other activities outside of the classroom.

Besides teaching, what other responsibilities will I have?

In addition to academics, Summerbridge aims to develop the life skills of our students. Student teachers work in committees to plan and facilitate special events to help students build life skills. Additionally, in groups of two or three, student teachers teach a sports and electives class throughout the summer.

Am I required to attend all the program dates if I join Summerbridge?

Yes. We expect that every student teacher will fully commit to all the program dates and will avoid making conflicting commitments to other activities during the summer. The Summerbridge program is quite intense and requires your full commitment.
