Because it takes a village.
Who are we?
What do we do?
Our Mission
The Village Teacher was founded by educators from around the globe with a simple purpose in mind: work in communities to create a space where we can create, incubate, and connect educational innovation in ways that are relevant to the community. Each program and initiative is built on a foundation of inclusion, equitability, and access that meets the specific needs of the communities we work with.
Our programs are built on the idea that sustainable, equitable, and community relevant education can only truly developed by sharing intimate time and space with individuals from different communities and experiences. Access and inclusion to these types of experiences should never be withheld on the basis of socioeconomic privilege. If a learner or educator has the desire to learn or share, it is our mission to find sustainable, equitable, and transparent solutions for supporting and facilitating their educational goals.
What we do...
connect communities with educators and programs
Connecting aspiring educators with excellent public, independent, and charter schools and educational programs. We work in communities to make sure that people from diverse identities, life experiences, and skill sets are mentored, supported and connected with learning communities around the US and abroad.
incubate Educators and
educational programs
We help build transparent, equitable, sustainable educational programs and develop aspiring educators. We provide mentoring and platforms (online and in-person) for teachers and programs to grow.
professional development and certification
Come share and learn skills and knowledge from local area experts, tradespeople both online and in-person. K-16 courses, as well as certification programs. The village school exists as a commons to amplify the many amazing teachers, opportunities, and programs that many are often unaware exist in their community.
Amplify work in the community
Our platform exists to give a public, shared platform for promoting educational programs that might otherwise exist in a silo. We do this buy helping aspiring programs and teachers build connections with our communities, develop their marketing, messaging, and materials, as well as provide mentorship and help with program development.
