Boost engagement, community, and joy in the online classroom
We train teachers to thrive as leaders who spark connection, collaboration, and creativity.
✓ Help students feel safe in turning on their cameras
✓ Know your students better
✓ Spark more laughter and light bulb moments
Every teacher deserves to feel that they are making an impact.
A common refrain among teachers during these times goes something like this:
"I'm working harder than I ever have to feel like I'm the worst teacher I've ever been."
And despite their efforts:
-
Students aren't turning on their mics or cameras.
-
They are more disengaged from learning than ever.
-
Teachers are feeling disconnected from their students.
-
They want to build community online, but don't know how.
It's hard for teachers to tell if they're making an impact. It's no wonder that great teachers are leaving the profession.
We understand.
We give teachers the tools to be successful during these times
Build relationships
Make the virtual classroom a space to connect, laugh, and learn together.
Spark growth
Bolster social-emotional learning while fulfilling academic learning standards.
Make a difference
Create a memorable classroom experience that will leave a lasting impact.
These educators and school leaders are glad they chose BETTER TOGETHER LABS
Thanks again for the training yesterday with us at California State University, East Bay. I could tell by the smiles that the faculty found play in the teambuilding.
We're gearing up for an incredibly challenging next two weeks. Our time yesterday was a great way to energize us as we learned new activities and tools.

This was truly FANTASTIC and one of the most useful and enjoyable Zoom sessions that I have attended. It would be incredible to have continued learning opportunities with you or a way to allow our teachers to learn with you. Thank you for your work!

This was the BEST ONLINE WORKSHOP I have attended. And I've been to a lot. Thank you for surprising me with the excellent quality!
I learned so many fun, practical, engaging strategies and activities that I can use with my students. I loved how clearly everything was explained and how much fun you made the learning. I'm SO HAPPY!

In our workshops, you will gain tools and activities that you can use right away in the online classroom. We focus on strengthening these areas key to promoting engagement, relationship-building, and emotional growth in the online classroom:
