WHAT IS TEACHERS WITHOUT BORDERS?

Teachers Without Borders is an international, non-profit organization that supports teachers, worldwide, with professional development opportunities and tools that connect them with information and each other, so that they may play a more vital role in their communities. We focus on teachers with initiative, who are passionate about their subjects and compassionate towards children. In addition to our online network and toolset, we help fund and support programs and workshops internationally that directly contribute to the betterment of education in local communities worldwide.
