#TBT Our favorite Group Leader spotlights | Teacher Appreciation week 2017

Celebrate Teacher Appreciation Week with Explorica

In the spirit of #TBT and #TeacherAppreciationWeek, we’re taking a look back at some of our most inspirational teachers with our Group Leader spotlight segment:

Gary R.
Gary is a Canadian history and social studies teacher for grades 9-12. He was first inspired to travel when he visited the important Canadian history sites across Europe, “I feel a responsibility to bring students overseas to see these places and feel what they represent for themselves, so they can have the opportunity to discover their Canadian identity as I did.” Read more.

Justin
Justin views educational travel as a way to help his students experience faraway places they probably couldn’t visit on their own. Justin turned a devastating earthquake into an important lesson for his students. Read more about his trip to Nepal.

Christian
Christian never dreamed she’d be able to travel with her students. But, she took advantage of Explorica’s flexibility to give her high-functioning special needs students to Spain. Read more.

Kerry
Kerry took a lifelong passion for travel and turned it into an educational opportunity for his students. He began planning his first tour in 2008, and since then, has led a trip every year. Read more.
