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:
“I’m really excited about all of it to be honest but specifically our problem of practice has been rigor so it will be exciting to see high expectations for ALL students with this program.”
Virtual Bootcamp Participant, Nebraska
“Relay has consistently delivered high-quality adult learning that simultaneously holds our educators’ full-selves, anchors on a rigorous and belonging student experience, and results in tangibly better-empowered teachers.”
Caitlin Butler, Deputy Chief of Talent, KIPP Texas
“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 a lot better as a teacher. When you are soaring and you just feel there’s this, you are gliding. That’s it. And that’s how I feel now. I’ve been teaching for over 20 years, but I’ve never felt this way. I have never, I’m more confident in the work I do.”
Teacher in Milwaukee, WI
“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
“Our relationship with Dr. Soto [of Teaching Lab] has made all of the difference in the success of our professional development. She has been outstanding, and my principals and leaders ask for her specifically by name.”
District Leader in Calcasieu Parish, LA
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.”

Teacher in Chicago, IL
“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.”
