What is Teacher to Teacher?
It has been our experience that sometimes, the best teaching is done peer-to-peer. At Explorica, we embrace this philosophy and invest in the development of our new group leaders through Teacher to Teacher, our exclusive training and mentorship program. Join a vibrant community and connect with teachers from across Canada who share your passion for education and believe that travel is an invaluable life experience.
How it works
Simply fill out our online form so we can best match you with a mentor that meets your needs and interests. Explorica will facilitate the introduction and then it’s up to you to decide how and how often you’d like to communicate with your T2T mentor (email, phone, in person, or any combination therein!).
