Nnstoy developed teaching beyond the barriers, a six-part professional development course designed around the habits of equity framework. The aim of the course is to aid teachers and schools in identifying and changing equity gaps in their classrooms and schools. Habits of equity framework and curriculum help teachers build the capacity to leverage equity literacy, anti-racism, and content expertise in the teaching and learning environment. The professional development course trains cohorts of teacher leaders, gathers feedback to refine the curriculum, and creates a one-year fellowship.
