πŸ† International Teacher Show Awards 2025

In this special awards episode, Jacob and AimΓ©e are joined by
Ashley Bryant and Wolfgang Soeldner to celebrate the tools, trends, and teachers that defined international education in 2025 β€” the good, the bad, and the jargon. From favorite tech to the flops we’d rather forget, it’s a lighthearted look back at the year in schools.
