Testimonials
Teachers are the engine behind the success of our work to shift the paradigm of teacher professional learning. At Teaching Lab, educators’ voices matter – and we are honored to share those voices here:
“Our literacy scores at the elementary were higher than they have been in years. I feel the inquiry cycles that were facilitated by our instructional coaches (trained by Teaching Lab) were very influential in this growth.”
Teacher in Ft Dodge, IA
“I feel like I’m more confident and comfortable when I’m talking with other educators, knowing what I can support them with. The work we’ve done has given me the ability to recognize my strengths and how I can use those to support the other teachers I work with.”
Tamara Leachman, a CPS 3–5 math teacher
“I usually don’t, but I actually really liked reading through the reflections/discussion boards. People had great insights. Each topic was different, so it was interesting to complete.”
Virtual Bootcamp Participant, Nebraska
“The people at Teaching Lab make the difference. There is a magic in the way they present, the way they discuss, and how open they are with all of their learning. The materials are top notch, but the people there make it come alive.”
District Lead in Calcasieu Parish, LA
“One of the reasons we went with Teaching Lab is because of its emphasis on content specificity, curriculum specificity, as well as equity. So we were looking to promote a coaching model that was transformational. The Head, Hearts, and Habits really spoke to us and said that this is ultimately what we needed.”
Amy Baker-Sheridan, Associate, Secondary English Language Arts & Literacy, Delaware Dept of Ed
Alejandra Cantu, School Leader“This is our strongest cohort of 1st year teachers. After attending the Relay training, they almost immediately had the foundational skills down, like giving clear directions, checking for understanding, and teacher presence.”
“Before the year began, I had some push back on the IM curriculum. STEM teachers and principal felt like what they were doing was working and did not need a change. I truly credit the work that the teachers engaged in this year around the curriculum and the inquiry cycles to the full buy-in from our staff and administrators. We are looking forward to partnering with Teaching Lab again this year for both math and ELA.”
District Leader in Pt Coupee Parish, LA
“Adrienne and Farren [of Teaching Lab] are not only PD facilitators, but they are collaborative partners in all aspects. I reach out to them on a regular basis when I have questions.”
Teacher in Ft Dodge, IA
“I love Teaching Lab so much and cannot wait to continue learning with other teachers in CPS on the strategies that we can use with our students. All of the practices that I implemented with my students proved successful!”
Teacher in Strive/Cincinatti Public Schools
