How can you connect with fellow educators in 2021 to get new ideas and inspiration? We believe that educators benefit from being connected to a network of other educators. That’s why we offer events that bring together teachers to connect, learn and share!
There are so many educators sharing great ideas online. During our Back to School Boost event, we asked our community of teachers to share
a teacher blog or social media account they follow. The group came up with such an awesome list of suggestions that we knew it had to be shared more widely!
So, thanks to the 2021 Back to School Boost New Year’s group, here is your list of 20 teachers to follow in 2021. Some of these were teachers we already followed, but many of them were new to us too. What we can say is that every teacher on this list was recommended by a fellow educator who finds ideas and inspiration from them. So, kudos to the 20 teachers below for showing up and sharing!
