This study finds that female students taught by a female versus a male teacher score
higher on standardized tests compared to male students even five years
later. Having a female math teacher in 7th grade
increases the likelihood that female students take higher-level math
courses, aspire to a STEM degree, and attend a STEM-focused high school.
These effects are driven by changes in students' attitudes and choices.
