TLC/WC Workshop: Drafting Teaching Statements

Drafting Teaching Statements for the Job Market
September 28, 6:30-8:00pm, on Zoom

On Wednesday, September 28th, from 6:30-8:00pm the Teaching and Learning Center and the Writing Center will host a workshop on Drafting Teaching Statements for the Job Market. Weโ€™ll discuss the role of the teaching statement within the larger job application, what makes a strong statement, how to frame whatโ€™s distinct about the CUNY experience, and how to approach the rhetorical challenge of crafting this document. Weโ€™ll examine sample statements from various disciplines, and work through a range of approaches.

This workshop will be held on Zoom. Please register beforehand at https://gc-cuny-edu.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZckc–trjoiGN2eYyGKMBkgO5LgoyRAMIa2. You will then receive an email with a Zoom link.
