While teaching in itself allows an individual to reach hundreds, if not thousands, of students throughout a career, some educators want to do more. Let's discuss the impact teacherpreneurs can have on education, and examine how to start, manage, and grow an organization, without having to leave your classroom.
At the core of every teacher is the desire and a need to reach and impact as many students as possible. That is what motivates us, what gives us joy, and what our purpose is.
While teaching in itself allows an individual to reach hundreds, if not thousands, of students throughout a career, some educators want to do more. Let's discuss how becoming an entrepreneur can offer driven teachers the opportunity to expand their impact to millions of students. We will discuss a couple case studies and explore how a few educators have taken their passion for teaching and turned them into successful organizations in order to maximize their impact on students and education as a whole.
We have looked at the impact teacherpreneurs can have on education, and through a relaxed conversation, we will examine how to start, manage, and grow an organization, without having to leave your classroom. Utilizing best practices in business, we will look at tools available for marketing and operating an organization while remaining in your classroom. We’ll discuss the challenges that may be faced, and ways to overcome them.
Together, we’ll talk through a detailed planning process for discovering your passion/idea, discovering the best ways to deliver that idea to others, and the necessary actions that need to occur to execute your plan. Starting with your idea, and your passion for education, at the core, you will leave this session with a vision of where to take your idea, and the next steps to get started.
It is my passion to help educators share their ideas with the world. The impact we have seen while growing our own idea into an organization, and sharing it with others, has sparked a fire and desire to help others do the same. I believe teachers are incredible candidates for entrepreneurship, because they are passionate, educated, and caring. And I believe that sharing this idea with more educators can not only increase the impact we all have on students, but also improve quality of life for teachers.
