Online teaching offers unique opportunities for meaningful one-on-one student connections and flexibility in the classroom. Educators at Insights School of Missouri (ISMO) find that online teaching gives them a unique opportunity to blend learning with creativity, allowing them to craft memorable learning experiences while enjoying more balance in their lives outside the classroom.  

Flexibility Within Online Teaching 

Educators who teach with ISMO have the ability to work from home without a morning commute. Having their own space comes with many benefits: 

  • Educators are able to express creativity and curate their teaching space exactly the way they want without being limited to the space of a physical classroom. 
  • Educators no longer have to worry about the daily tidying that can come with an in-person classroom.  
  • Educators are not responsible for having supplies onsite, instead each student has their own supplies in their learning space at home. Organization of worksheets, homework and student resources exist in a virtual environment allowing teachers to organize their documents and save physical space.  
  • Tailoring instruction to fit individual students becomes easier than ever online. Instruction can be divided into group synchronous lessons, small group lessons, one on one instruction, or asynchronous lessons.  

Lesson Planning 

ISMO utilizes K12-powered curriculum that gives educators the ability to tailor lessons to their specific students. They are able to meet students’ needs while keeping them engaged in the moment more easily than ever. 

Educators at ISMO also utilize a digital archive to provide their students with any past lessons or assignments. This allows students to revisit lessons and master material that they would not otherwise have the opportunity to revisit. Educators can also revisit this library when preparing for the next year, using real learnings to continually enhance their instruction.  

Ready to Step out of the Classroom?  

Take your teaching career online and let ISMO bring the joy of the classroom to you. At its core, online teaching is about connection, not distance. It invites new ideas and presents new opportunities.
