A History Inspired By Impact

Founded by teachers for teachers, BetterLesson began in 2008 with a single missionto provide a simple way for educators to connect and share high-quality lesson plans. Today, BetterLesson has over 1.4 million registered members and offers over a million lessons from our community and our Master Teachers, a highly selective group of the nation’s best educators.
