The Sabot Institute for Teaching and Learning

A Refreshing Approach in the Classroom

“Education is not a preparation for life; education is life itself.” – John Dewey



Dewey’s words fuel our thinking about our educational approach. It is our objective to develop the educational environment necessary to support the promise and potential of all learners – an environment that will engage the turned-on learner and that will, at the same time, ignite the passions of students who can become turned on to learning. At Sabot, the learner is a member of a democratic community that supports collaboration so that children, teachers, staff members, and parents gain understanding together. In our approach, everyone teaches and everyone learns.

The Sabot Institute for Teaching and Learning offers several ways for educators to deepen their craft. Explore these pages and sign up for our newsletter to learn more about our events and consulting services.
