Take A Look At What Our Students Think
Sarah C., 3rd Grade Teacher, Portland, OR
"I thought asking for more money would make me seem ungrateful or difficult. I used the scripts and negotiated $4,200 more than the initial salary. I can't believe I almost didn't ask."
Jen P., 7th Grade ELA Teacher, Chicago, IL
"This was so worth it, I've been teaching for 8 years, but I didn't know how to talk about my experience to my admin. I used the framework to write my negotiation email and got moved up two steps. Thank you!"
Alex H., Special Education Teacher, Miami, FL
"Before this course, I didn't even know negotiation was an option for teachers. I thought you just accepted what they offered. I didn't end up with a raise but I did get reimbursed for some of my professional development I have been doing. This course is a game changer."
Marc J., Chemistry Teacher, Seattle, WA
"I actually felt guilty asking! Then I remembered from this course that I wasn't asking for a favor, I was advocating for my fair compensation. I have a meeting scheduled for the end of the month. Wish me luck!"
