Verified teachers onlyFree, for good

Teaching is better when we don’t have to do it alone.

A place for verified teachers to connect, meet colleagues who teach what they teach, and share lessons that stay credited to them.

We send one link. We never show this address to anyone, and it is not how teachers find you.

Today’s question · All teachers

What’s one boundary you’ve set that made the job more sustainable?

What TeachersHall is

One place for teachers to connect, meet and share.

A door

Everyone inside is a verified teacher, checked by school email or credential. No parents, no vendors, no recruiters.

A library

Lessons, units and readings shared by teachers, plus more than 10,000 free documents from NASA, the Library of Congress, the National Archives and others. Search by grade and subject, take what you need, and the teacher who made it stays credited.

Connect

Find teachers who teach what you teach, in your district or three states away. Ask them a question, swap a unit, or compare notes on the week.

What’s inside

Six things. All of them for teachers.

The feed and the daily question

One question a day, answered by teachers in a line or two. Under it, posts from the teachers you’re connected with and the rooms you’re in.

Talk shop at 9pm with someone who gets it.

Rooms by subject, grade and district

Ninth-grade biology. First-year teachers. Your own district. Ask, answer, run a quick poll, and the best answer stays at the top.

Ask the people who taught the unit last week.

The library, and “Take this”

Real files, sorted by grade, subject and course, with whole units kept together. Take this puts a lesson in your library with its teacher credited. Can’t find it? Ask for it.

Stop building from scratch at the kitchen table.

Connect

Teachers matched on subject, grade band and district, with the reason for each match. Keep your account public, or private so only connections see your posts.

The chemistry teacher two districts over becomes your department.

Messages

A quiet way to ask one teacher one question. Teachers only, never vendors, never recruiters.

No inbox full of sales pitches.

Verified, and anonymous when you need it

Everyone inside is checked by school email or credential. Post under your name, or anonymously on any single post.

Say the true thing about the job to people who understand it.

Why this exists

Teachers want to talk about the work. They never get the time.

53hrs

on the job, every week

Teachers work nine more hours a week than similar working adults.1

Cut the part you do alone at the kitchen table.

12hrs

a week, hunting for materials

That is how long the average teacher spends finding and building instructional materials.3

Start from a unit a colleague already ran.

2hrs

a week, with other teachers

Out of a 54-hour week. Less than four percent of the job is spent with colleagues.4

Colleagues who are around at 9pm on a Sunday.

Teachers who work together more report higher job satisfaction and more confidence, in almost every country the OECD surveyed.7

How the library fills

Take one, leave one.

Every teacher arrives needing something, and most leave something behind. Nobody wants your best work, only the thing you already made and already ran.

Leave one.

Share

Upload the unit you taught last week, as it is. Teachers want it real, not polished.

The credit, three copies deep

Denise Okafor wrote the osmosis lab.
Maureen Bell ran it with 34 students and one balance.
Ravi Shah took it for intro bio, with Denise named on his copy.

The names are made up. The credit line is real.

Getting in

Verified at the door. Free after it.

Use your school email

A .edu, .k12 or district address verifies you on the spot. Nobody ever sees it.

Or send a credential

A licence, a staff directory page or a school ID. A person reads it and answers within a day.

Bring one thing

A worksheet, a unit, a rubric. Whatever is already on your drive.

Who is building this

Three of us, and none of us teaches.

That’s on purpose. Teachers run the rooms and answer the questions. We build the platform and stay out of the conversation.
