Our Fellowship program in Tanzania supports Livingstone Trust to expand professional development opportunities for teachers in Babati and the wider Manyara Region.
Teachers in Babati face average class sizes of 50 students and over half report getting no professional development. Alongside low-resources, these conditions lead to low levels of learning.
As a Fellow you’ll co-lead workshops and support teachers in their classrooms through peer coaching. Your efforts as a team will help Livingstone Trust support teachers to improve learning in schools.
The Tanzania program starts with training and orientation, which prepares you to support teachers through a 3-week institute. Each week combines workshops and coaching and focuses on a new area of teaching.
After arrival at Julius Nyerere International Airport, your team will transfer to Babati.
You’ll visit schools and meet the teachers you’ll be working with, and then your team leaders will give you training and tools you’ll need for your role.
In the three weeks that follow, you’ll run workshops covering 27 powerful teaching techniques. After each workshop, you’ll use coaching to help teachers put techniques into practice in their classrooms.
The institute begins with an inspiring opening ceremony, which sets the stage for the weeks to come.
You’ll then co-facilitate a theory session on the science of learning and facilitate engaging sessions on classroom routines, effective explanations, and student talk.
Through the week, you’ll work with teachers in their schools, using coaching to help them to embed techniques from the workshop in their classroom.
After a fulfilling first week in schools, you’ll bond as a team on Safari in Queen Elizabeth National Park.
Building on learnings from your first week, you’ll run a second workshop. You’ll co-lead an interactive session on lesson design, and practice sessions on techniques for modeling, questioning, and creating a positive classroom climate.
During the week, you’ll be back in classrooms using coaching cycles to help teachers put techniques into practice.
After another productive week in schools, the team will head off for a relaxing weekend at the beautiful Lake Bunyonyi.
On the final workshop day, you’ll run sessions on creating a motivating classroom climate, scaffolding learning, and assessment-informed teaching.
You’ll support the teachers you’ve been working with as they transition to using peer coaching to support each other on an ongoing basis.
A closing ceremony on the final day of the institute will be a chance to reflect on what you’ve accomplished together.
Before you fly out from Entebbe, you’ll get the chance to celebrate as a team by rafting on the Nile.
We will provide you with a suite of tools to help you run great workshop sessions and to guide you and the teachers you support through successful peer coaching cycles. Some of the tools include:
You’ll be able to keep and use these tools in your school back at home.
Each week, you’ll support each teacher through three peer coaching cycles. Through the 3-week institution, you’ll help them practice 27 systematic techniques and put them into action through co-planning, observation, and feedback.
The program is designed to be responsive to each teacher’s individual needs. We will equip you with a set of tools that enable you to be responsive to each teacher’s needs.
There are three workshop days over the course of the program.
During each workshop day, you’ll facilitate four sessions alongside another Fellow.
Each day’s first session is focused on the science of teaching and learning, whereas the other three sessions are practice sessions.
During the practice sessions, you’ll get teachers practicing powerful techniques, which they’ll go on to put into practice in school.
Applying take 20 minutes. You can save your progress and come back to it.

Our Fellowship partner in Uganda is Great Lakes University. The Great Lakes team is committed to working to expand access to quality education in Kanungu, but with limited capacity.
