Increasing Teacher Confidence & Motivation in Yucatán
In 2022, TeachUNITED partnered with the Yucatán government’s education department to address the increasing inequity caused by the pandemic in rural communities. TeachUNITED recently interviewed a couple of participants one year into the training program to learn more about its early impact on instructional coaches, teachers, students, and the community at large.
Improving Outcomes for 1.2M
TeachUNITED celebrated a significant milestone in 2023 – reaching more than one million students and 30,000 educators globally!
TeachUNITED selected by Elimu-Soko
Our partners through the Elimu-Soko program recently announced the selection of TeachUNITED as the innovating partner for teacher training expansion into Zanzibar. This pilot project aims to improve foundational learning outcomes for 20,000 students and build the capacity of 250 primary teachers to teach more effectively using contextually relevant solutions to the challenges they face every day in the classroom.
TeachUNITED and the W.K. Kellogg Foundation Partner
We are honored to announce our partnership with both the W.K. Kellogg Foundation and the Secretary of Education of Yucatán, Mexico (SEGEY). With the support of the Kellogg Foundation, we will continue working with the government to increase educational equity in rural Maya communities in Mexico.
TeachUNITED delivers Tangible ROI for Teachers and Students
Last school year, TeachUNITED partnered with schools in rural New Hampshire, Colorado, Mississippi, and Missouri to provide educator coaching programs customized in partnership with and for the needs of each school community. The results have been extremely positive, for teachers, students, and their school communities as a whole.
“Grow Your Own” to Combat Teacher Shortage
The teacher shortage in rural communities is a well-documented concern, and the conference brought educators, policymakers, and organizations like TeachUNITED together to explore sustainable solutions. The “Grow Your Own” (GYO) model emerged as one possibility.
