Teach Us

Kylee will be teaching English at Klein Forest High School this fall- and she earned that offer before she even finished her certification program. 💛

That's not luck. That's what happens when you show up with the right preparation behind you.

Kylee has always been drawn to kids and to the classroom- inspired by the incredible teachers she had growing up, and motivated by what she sees as one of education's most urgent challenges: a growing literacy crisis and students who need passionate, present teachers in their corner.

She came into her certification journey with high stakes. Her district had a deadline, and she essentially had one shot to pass her exam or risk losing her job offer entirely. Enter Lizette— Kylee's advisor at Teach Us— who never once doubted her, even when Kylee doubted herself.

"She's been one of my biggest cheerleaders and has quickly and willingly answered every question I throw at her — and I am a very anxious person so I throw a lot of questions!"
Spoiler: Lizette knew better. Kylee passed on her first try. 🎉

When Angela was a little girl, she'd line up her stuffed animals, call roll, and hand out ribbons for "great job done." 🎨💛

She always knew she was meant to teach, but the road to getting there was anything but simple.

Angela lost her parents when she was just 9 months old. When she found out at 17, her world shifted, and she was steered toward law school instead. She earned a degree in English and the Arts of Literature, graduated- and then made a pivot that changed everything. She went back to school and found her way to education.

Today, Angela works alongside an incredible team at a Corpus Christi elementary school, where she helps teach pre-K students and brings her lifelong love of art into every classroom moment.

She credits it all to the people who held her up along the way — her children Miguel and Aurora, and her partner Mark, who set up her computer for mentor meetings, cheered her on through every challenge, and loved her through every step.

"The Teach Us platform, alongside my family and friends, altogether definitely allowed me to believe in myself."

Nadya had been teaching AP-level math for years while carrying the quiet weight of an uncompleted certification. With the right structure and support behind her, she walked into that exam differently. And she passed.
