"If you have googled, you already know there is no other teacher training program that matches the TTC. The TTC spirit is truly special: expect to be surrounded by people who are experts in teaching, generous and experienced mentors, and have an unequivocal commitment to equity. I now run PD for teachers around the world and feel deeply that the TTC is the highest-impact investment you can make in your future as an educational leader. I am grateful every day that I 'learned to teach by teaching' at the SHS TTC."

"I am a professor in education; I teach teachers; I shift the culture of schools; I change the landscape for people of color. I feel fortunate to be in a position to do this important work and to have found the TTC, which started me on a path of making a difference on a large scale."

"In my cohort, I was selected as that year’s TTC Urban Teaching Fellow, which placed me in a Cambridge public school for my spring term. Seeing different schools with different approaches opened me to a diversity of ideas, issues, and communities."
