At the time, I knew we were setting out to help high schoolers and their families plan for higher education, but I truly didn’t know how deep and expansive our impact would run. Earl Woods, Tiger’s father, passed in May 2006, and following his death came the birth of […] Read More How to dive deep into learning this summer with TGR Foundation While school maybe out in just a few short weeks, our TGR Learning Lab is gearing up for another busy summer, filled with an array of activities for curious minds and eager learners.

Read More How the TGR Learning Lab helped me explore STEM careers After participating in the TGR Learning Lab Expanded Learning Program for the first time, Matthew Payan’s passion for science was awakened and his participation continued. During the pandemic his interests led him to several classes that allowed him to gain skills that he put to use immediately. He recently reflected on his experience and the benefits of participating in the TGR Learning Lab’s Programs as he prepares to start his freshman year of high school in the fall. Read More 25 Years of Impact: How TGR Foundation’s Professional Learning Program Created a Paradigm Shift in my Teaching TGR Foundation’s professional learning workshops have been a revelation. Prior to attending the workshops, I heard about many of the concepts I’ve now adopted including student-centered instruction and project-based learning. What makes TGR Foundation’s teacher training program unique is that you experience the pedagogy from the perspective of both the teacher and the student. It began with my initial glimpse of the TGR Learning Lab. A futuristic and modern facility, the entry heralds the promise of an exciting, eye-opening experience. Soaring glass windows and an open-air feeling pervades the space. Appropriately located next to a golf course, the TGR Learning Lab, Tiger Woods’ ode to STEM education, is both inviting and inspirational. I attended my first educator training workshop in 2017, and I was blown away.
