At TeachFX, we love hearing from our partner schools, and we also love sharing out the experiences of educators who are using the TeachFX tool in powerful ways.

In the video below, you’ll hear from an amazing group of teachers, an instructional coach, and the principal of Caliber Beta Academy in Richmond, CA:

A couple quotes you might like from the video:

  • “Our school uses TeachFX because we really believe that dynamic, engaging classrooms are the way we can close the opportunity gap for students of color.” — Ashlee Gutierrez, Principal
  • “I use TeachFX to heighten the level and amount of discussion in my classes, and to have kids engaging around ideas more.” — Annie Oppenheim, Teacher
  • “When I look at the reality of the words I’m saying, and how much I’m saying, and what the ratio is between my talk and student talk and group talk and silence, it really is pretty profound. I’m realizing afterwards, looking at that report, who’s doing the learning, who’s doing all the work, and who’s doing the heavy lifting here.” — Derek Payne, Teacher
