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 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

“Teaching Lab has provided PD sessions that has strengthened teachers knowledge in teaching
practices to increase students writing. The biggest contributing factor is the rigor and high quality instruction.”

Teacher in New York City Public Schools

“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.”

Alejandra Cantu, School Leader

“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

“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

“Teaching Lab has been well received, and I believe the reason for that is when they come in, they’re learning, they’re asking, they’re getting to know the context…. I believe it’s a really good organization that can provide that development of teachers with that context in mind.”

in Milwaukee, WI

“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 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

“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.”
