After a combined 50+ years of teaching, authoring and conducting conventional conferences, seminars and onsite workshops for teachers, we knew it was time for something new, innovative and economical. That’s why we created Teacher Online Classes, a unique organization that offers high quality professional development training for unheard of prices! We’ve utilized today’s technology (the Internet) and created a format that allows more teachers than ever before to attend a teacher training workshop or class.

We’re thrilled about this extraordinary way to bring the very best, practical ideas to today’s educators. After all, increased teacher confidence and motivation means greater student success!

Best Regards,

Mary Peterson and Pamela Haack
