Please join me and the Global Teacher Prize in celebrating teachers and the amazing things they do. Recognize the teachers who have changed your life, and/ or the lives of others around you, by nominating them for a Global Teacher Prize HERE before October 8th, 2017.

Description: The Global Teacher Prize is a US $1 million award presented annually to an exceptional teacher who has made an outstanding contribution to their profession. The prize serves to underline the importance of educators and the fact that, throughout the world, their efforts deserve to be recognised and celebrated. It seeks to acknowledge the impacts of the very best teachers – not only on their students but on the communities around them.
