Inc.は「78歳の元修道女ファイストリツァーはずっと以前に従来の教育方法が好ましくないことに気付いた。そこで2011年、教員をオンラインで養成し、認定するためTEACH-NOWを創設した。現在、幼児教育や特別支援教育などの高成長の学科の修士認定を含め、TEACH-NOWは125カ国で4000人の教員志願者を支援してきた。『すべては母のおかげだ。彼女は教師だった』とファイストリツァーは言う」と伝えている。

Fast Companyによると「教育専門家のエミリー・ファイストリツァーは40年以上にわたって最良の教員養成法を研究、連邦議会や州議会で証言、大統領府構成員らに説明するようになり、現在、教育のアクセシビリティーを強く求めている」。

ファイストリツァー博士は、TEACH-NOWを米国で最も急成長する教員養成プログラムの1つに構築した。その教員養成の個人仕様学習プラットフォームのユニークな手法は、大学卒業者、退役軍人、その他の転職者に米国や海外での教員認定の道を開く。その成功はTEACH-NOW Graduate School of Educationの創設につながり、志願者に教育学修士号取得や世界中で公認された教職免許の取得を可能にする。
