New TeachingBooks Overview Video

In 2001, Nick Glass started TeachingBooks with a dream that every reader could learn from the author the moment that they are reading a book. And as you'll see, we have made that vision a reality! With 44,000 schools currently having access to our service, we think this is powerful and magical stuff.

We have gone through many changes in 2019 and now in 2020, we have a brand new Overview Video to share with you and your team. Enjoy!

And there is more! Freely share these video tutorials with your learning community.

TeachingBooks Could Use Your Help

On occasion, educators have asked how they can help TeachingBooks grow and spread the word. Typically, we do not ask for this kind of assistance because we understand how incredibly busy you are, but we do have a couple of timely opportunities if you wish to consider them:

AASL Best Digital Tool Nomination
We are incredibly proud of the newly redesigned TeachingBooks and are going to be submitting it for consideration as one of AASL's Best Digital Tools for Teaching & Learning. We would be honored if you'd do the same using their online submission form:

Common Sense Education Review
We will be asking the Common Sense team to review the newly redesigned TeachingBooks. If you use Common Sense, we invite you to add your review to their platform as well so that educators and families can benefit from your insights.
