BEST Teacher Academy
Preparing Educators to Make an Impact
Being an educator is an amazing profession, and most teachers get in for the right reasons. Sadly, 30% of educators leave the profession within the first five years, and currently 48% of all teachers in the US are considering leaving the profession. Our mission at BEST is to give teachers the tools to maximize their opportunities as an educator, to rekindle the dream of educators as difference makers, and to debunk the notion that being in education means that you will not have the financial means to live a successful life.

Why Choose BEST Teacher Academy?
Each teacher has the ability to create and change school culture on a daily basis. Too many times teachers don't own their power to affect positive change. If we are not actively pursuing positive and effective cultures those cultures will turn negative everytime. Best Teacher Academy gives teachers the tools to actively engage other teachers to create rich and powerful cultures that are based upon empathy, respect and meaningful relationships.

Engage with Energy and Enthusiasm
People are drawn to each other because they see a reason to engage. When students learn to make small adjustments in their physiology, facial expressions, and verbal cues others are more eager to invest time into a relationship with them.
S
Support and Serve
Past relationships don't determine future relationships, but they do affect who we become. Students gain tools to understand their past, but more importantly they gain strategies for making current and future relationships be the best they can be.
Transform Yourself Tranform Your Community
Understanding that we are all going through something at any point in time, creates a shared experience and an extra incentive to drop the judgment and be a little more accepting of other students' journeys.
