In “Teachers Want to Quit Because They’re Unhappy and Unfulfilled. Here’s One Fix,” Michael B. Horn gives Teach to One as an example of the role of the teacher reimagined for sustainability and fulfillment. In the Teach to One team environment (as implemented in Elizabeth Public Schools), teachers’ workloads are shared through a true teacher team. The team co-teaches, creating a support network for students, rather than leaning on the one-to-many teacher-to-student model.
Adjustments like those made possible through Teach to One show an understanding of what motivates teachers and how to shift the paradigm in ways that make the teaching profession more sustainable and gratifying. Read more from Michael B. Horn in The 74.
