Math For America




MfA created the Newton Fellowship Program to improve teacher quality by increasing the number of well trained and properly motivated people entering careers as high school mathematics teachers. Newton Fellows receive Master's level teacher training, on-going financial incentives ($90,000 in stipends over 5 years in addition to the teacher's salary), and supportive services to help graduating college seniors as well as mid-career professionals launch successful, satisfying mathematics teaching careers.

Math for America is the brainchild of mathematician and philanthropist Jim Simons .
