“I have greater confidence in my teaching abilities and continue to strive to use best teaching practices for student learning.”
“Yes, I actually believe I can be a teacher, in fact now I know I can, and find it much more interesting and rewarding...”
“[The Teaching Academy] challenged me to constantly self-evaluate my teaching strategies to make sure I'm learning how to more effectively communicate while my students are learning the material I'm teaching.”
“I feel more confident to step into the role of facilitating a class session and sharing what I know about a topic. I feel less like a complete peer to students and more capable as a mentor and role model to students who are just a few years younger than me.”
“The Teaching Academy was a major determining factor in my choice of graduate school. This program will prepare me for my future profession by providing me with the opportunity to learn the pedagogical foundation needed to be a great professor, as well as to learn from great professors and improve my teaching technique.”

The Teaching Academy, teachingacademy@jhu.edu, serves as an exceptional professional teaching development program. Our mission is twofold: to support the learning experiences for undergraduates by training college teachers; and to prepare graduate students so they may thrive in higher education as academic professionals once they graduate.
