As an educator, Kyle Vaughn's career spans over 20 years; over 20 distinct courses in the areas of English, Humanities, and the Arts; over every age group, from 5 to 65+ (though primarily at the secondary level); and over the entire world, from the southern United States to India.

His leadership in the area of student publications led the Hockaday school's literary-arts magazine Vibrato to numerous awards from the NCTE, CSPA, and NSPA, who inducted Vibrato into its Scholastic Press Hall of Fame. Kyle also revised the NSPA's 2008 edition of its Magazine Guidebook . His Creative Writing curriculum served as the source material for his NCTE book, Lightning Paths . In addition to publishing articles and a book with the National Council of Teachers of English, he has led professional development in several settings, including at the Global Education Forum.
