Teacher Boost

Helping teachers replace traditional top-down, teacher-led instruction with more student-centered learning.

Why should I attend?

In student-centered environments, teachers have more time to meet individual needs. Students are more engaged and motivated because they are driving their own learning, with the encouragement of great coaching and mentoring. Their academic and non-cognitive skills improve, and they’re better equipped for the complicated world. 

Teacher Boost helps you...

  • Motivate student engagement through encouragement and great coaching and mentoring.
  • Gain understanding around how to nurture agency and release control, as well as how to become a better one-on-one coach by giving feedback and building relationships of trust.
  • Experience new ways to re-envision your role as an educator.
  • Learn successful methods for freeing up place, time, and pace to personalize learning.

What others have to say about Teacher Boost

The facilitators did a great job of modeling the ideas that we should be using with our own students. All directions, activities, and phrases were specifically chosen to help us in our own classrooms.
Teacher Boost confirmed many of the practices that I already implement in my classroom while offering improvements that are valuable to my teaching.
One of the best, most practical PD sessions I’ve encountered. I am motivated to get right into my class and put these strategies to use!
I appreciated the facilitators' knowledge of the subject area - because they are former teachers!
Great PD to attend. I enjoyed being the student today instead of the educator and being able to share and take away ideas for real use in the classroom setting!
Teacher Boost put me back in the teacher mindset in early August, when I still have time to implement new ideas and rethink the way my classroom works.
I learned some new strategies that will help me have a better classroom environment.
A very valuable day spent with great educators that care about making learning fun.
