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:

“The Sessions were appropriately organized, and slowly brought me into the curriculum that could seem overwhelming.”

“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.”

“The professional learning was excellent. Teachers stated that it was the best training in their career because of it’s relevance of addressing unfinished learning. They were pushed in their thinking.”

Teacher in Strive/Cincinatti Public Schools

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.”

“TAB is a place I want to be in because it means that Teaching Lab is interested in prioritizing teacher voices.”

Ira Stillwell — Program Facilitator and TAB member

“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.”
