See What Our Teachers Have to Say
Ged Helm
I've learned so very much from my colleagues here at Kaplan. I knew the test well, but I didn't know anything about instruction when I joined. I've had to complete and pass many rigorous training programs in my time here which taught me how to: plan, prep, and deliver a lesson; analyze student performance and engagement; and support students inside and outside of both in person and online classrooms.
- LSAT Teacher
Nzinga Mack
As a teacher trainer, I provided feedback to future teachers, and this has made me even more open to the feedback of others not only on my teaching, but on my life in general. In life, I have become more appreciative of anyone who takes the time to observe me and give me specific and actionable feedback, as it is a sign of someone who truly has my best interest at heart.
- MCAT, GMAT, and GRE Teacher
Aerie Kim
I've been provided so many opportunities to try out new roles--tutoring, content work, other test products, online and in person classroom instruction, peer mentoring. None of these roles were things I initially thought I would be able to do, but I was provided with a safe space to try things out. Outside of my work at Kaplan, I look at "hard things" as something that I know I may not really like while I'm learning, but I know I can work through it, and that sense of empowerment is invaluable.
