Colleges and Universities
Building on decades of research, The Skillful Teacher offers evidence-based instructional strategies for today’s classroom including easy-to-understand scripts and videos. It is used extensively in colleges and universities across the U.S. and around the world by to support the growth of teachers and leaders who are invested in continuously improving their practice.
