We Don't Do Workshops.
We Do Partnerships.

What Happens When
We Visit Your School
Most observation processes feel punitive. Teachers dread walkthroughs because they only hear what is wrong. Trust erodes. Morale drops. The teachers you most want to keep are the ones most affected by this.
TDI visits are different. Our on-campus days happen while students are in session. We are in real classrooms, watching real teaching, and giving real, affirming feedback. This is not a sit-and-get workshop in the library.
What a Visit Looks Like
- We observe up to 15 classrooms per visit
- Observations are growth-focused, not evaluative
- We meet with teachers one-on-one after observations
- Leadership debrief at the end of each day
Love Notes: Personalized Teacher Feedback
Every teacher we observe receives a Love Note, a personalized note highlighting specific strengths we saw in their classroom. These are not generic praise. They are detailed observations that help teachers see what they are already doing well.
"During your small group rotation today, I noticed how you used proximity and a calm voice to redirect Marcus without stopping instruction. The other students did not even look up. That is classroom management mastery. The way you had materials pre-sorted for each group saved at least 3 minutes of transition time. Your students knew exactly where to go and what to grab. Keep leaning into those systems."
Love Notes are what teachers tell us they remember months later. Not the PD slides. Not the data. The moment someone noticed what they were doing right.
We have never seen another PD provider do this. It is impossible to replicate without genuine care for the people in your building.
On-Demand Support for Every Educator
Teachers are Googling random strategies, pulling things from Pinterest, and none of it connects to what your school is actually working on. Every classroom ends up doing something different.
The Learning Hub changes that. It is not about watching videos and checking boxes. It is about finding the right strategy for the challenge you are facing today and using it tomorrow - from a vetted, aligned resource library.
What Your Staff Gets Access To
- 100+ hours of practical, classroom-ready content
- Courses for teachers, paras, instructional coaches, and admins
- Downloadable tools, templates, and resources
- New content added regularly
Built for Implementation,
Not Consumption
Research shows traditional PD produces a 5-10% classroom transfer rate (Joyce & Showers, 2002). TDI partners average 65%. The difference is sustained, phased support - not a single event.

See Your School's Progress in Real Time
Right now you are probably pulling PD evidence together manually - spreadsheets, emails, walkthrough notes - spending 20+ hours before every board meeting. And when the state asks for your improvement plan documentation, it is another scramble.
The Leadership Dashboard changes that. It gives you board-ready evidence that builds itself as the partnership runs. No end-of-year scramble.

Why This Matters
When renewal conversations come up, you will have the data. Not just "teachers liked it" but "here is the measurable change we saw." That is how you justify the investment to your board.
Available in All Phases
Every partnership includes access to the Leadership Dashboard. You will never wonder if the investment is working.
All dashboard data is FERPA-compliant with role-based access. Superintendents see district-wide data. Principals see only their building. Individual teacher data is never displayed.
Teachers Deserve It:
The Book That Started a Movement
About the Book
Teachers Deserve It is the book that started this whole movement. Written by Rae Hughart and Adam Welcome, it is a practical guide for educators who want to reclaim their time, rebuild their confidence, and remember why they started teaching in the first place.
What Readers Say
"This is not a book about doing more. It is about doing what matters. Small, manageable steps that add up to real change."
Why It Matters for Your Staff
When your teachers read this book together, something shifts. They realize they are not alone. They see that change does not require a complete overhaul, just intentional small steps. It builds a shared language and shared commitment across your team.
When Your Staff Gets the Book
This is What Change
Looks Like
We do not measure success by course completions. We measure it by what changes in your school. Here is what our partner schools report.
Verified Outcomes from
TDI Partner Schools
Based on verified survey data from TDI partner schools after 3-4 months.
Research context: Joyce & Showers (1980, 2002) found that traditional "sit-and-get" PD produces 5-10% classroom transfer. Sustained coaching models produce 80-90%. TDI's 65% reflects real partner data within this research-backed range.
What This Means for Your Budget
If your school currently spends $15-20K annually on professional development that produces a 10% implementation rate, a significant portion of that investment is not converting to classroom change. TDI partnerships start at $6,600 and deliver 6.5x the implementation - meaning your PD dollars actually reach students.
From Our Partner Schools
A 6-school district in Illinois reduced average teacher stress scores within one academic year of their Ignite partnership.
A K-8 school in the Midwest grew implementation across their first Ignite semester and continued through Year 2 in Accelerate.
A rural elementary school reported zero voluntary teacher departures in the year following their TDI partnership, after losing 4 the previous year.
Placeholder data shown. Real anonymized partner data coming soon.
What School Leaders Say
"Our staff actually looked forward to PD. The flipped model made a huge difference. Teachers could watch on their own time and come ready for real conversations. We will absolutely be partnering with TDI again."
Principal, K-8 School
"Professional development that finally meets the moment. Between burnout and new initiatives, our team needed clarity and care. TDI delivered both."

Some districts may still have unspent ESSER funds available through September 2026. Check with your business office.
Need help writing the grant language? Your TDI partner can provide alignment documentation and evidence summaries for your application.
TDI partnerships start at $6,600 depending on school size and scope.
Results in Action, Not Boxes Checked
The goal is not to complete a course. The goal is for a teacher to try a new strategy on Monday and see it work by Friday. That is what we measure. That is what we celebrate.
