About us

Teaching Lab is a nonprofit organization that works to close the educational opportunity gap through teacher-led professional learning. We identify exceptional teacher-leaders, work with them to recruit their colleagues, and support them in improving instruction for under-served students. In order to raise the achievement of under-served students, we must help thousands of teachers improve their instruction. Despite US schools investing over $20 billion annually in teacher training, typical professional development (PD) simply does not work. Most PD is ineffective because it is characterized by low teacher buy-in, generic content, and lack of follow through. Teaching Lab offers an effective and scalable alternative for rapidly improving teaching quality. Teaching Lab uses a model based on three key elements supported by cognitive science and education research: Teacher Leadership, Core Content, and Iterative Cycles of Inquiry. These elements in combination create impact greater than the sum of their parts.

    We’re so proud of our amazing NYC ELA team! We recently wrapped up our three-part learning series focused on Acadience with a full day of Data Interpretation. It was inspiring to see everyone investing in their growth and coming together to strengthen the support we offer to NYC students. We’re excited to bring our insights back to the classroom!

    In honor of #NativeAmericanHeritageMonth, explore how the Writing Pathway can help students engage with Native voices through literature! We dive into "Remember" by Joy Harjo, a celebrated poet from the Muscogee Nation, by having students plan a paragraph about how Harjo's heritage and commitment to social justice shaped her work. With The Writing Pathway’s AI-powered tools, create tailored writing practice that enriches your curriculum and fosters deeper cultural awareness. writingpathway.org #EdTech
