Clients

4QM Teaching works with a wide range of schools and districts. We consult on large scale curriculum revisions, write curriculum, and provide professional development to help teachers incorporate the Four Question Method in their planning and classroom teaching. Outcomes include more focused curriculum, more student-centered teaching, higher student engagement, and improved student learning.

We work closely with individual clients to determine their needs and design a program that will meet those needs as efficiently as possible. Contact Us if you’d like to start a conversation about energizing history teaching and learning in your school or district.
