It's Teacher Appreciation Week, and Eduspire's mission revolves around helping teachers maximize their resources to impart better instruction to students. We wouldn't have a purpose without teachers, and the constant feedback and participation we receive from educators near and far makes everything we do rewarding and worthwhile.
Thank you, teachers, for taking our courses, passing along what you've learned to your students, and teaching our children every day!
