Elizabeth Green's biography

At a glance

  • Author of New York Times bestseller on teaching
  • Cofounder and CEO of Chalkbeat nonprofit news
  • Journalist translating education research into practice
Elizabeth Green is a journalist and author whose work reveals the concrete, learnable techniques that separate effective teaching from guesswork. She wrote the New York Times bestseller Building a Better Teacher, which investigates the science behind great instruction. Green is also the co-founder and CEO of Chalkbeat, an award-winning nonprofit news organization covering education across the United States. Elizabeth's reporting bridges the gap between research and practice, translating decades of academic findings into strategies that educators can use immediately. Her work has reshaped how school leaders think about teacher development, moving the conversation away from talent-based hiring and toward skill-based training. She shows that teaching ability is not innate but built through deliberate methods that any school system can adopt. Audiences leave her sessions with a clear understanding of what research says actually works in classrooms, practical frameworks for improving teacher training and support programs, and a realistic perspective on education reform that avoids both cynicism and empty optimism. Her arguments draw directly from documented case studies of schools and teachers who have put these ideas into practice with measurable results. Book Elizabeth Green to give your audience an evidence-based, actionable path toward stronger teaching and better outcomes for students.
