Who Cares About Teachers, Anyway?

In today's education crisis, who cares about teachers?   The media is full of  news about exponential school budget cuts, teacher layoffs and classrooms with an uneven mix of behavior problems and a lack of resources.   Teachers are frequently blamed for the falling test scores.  Despite the effects of social ills such as broken families and poverty that loom in the classroom, teachers spend their day attempting to lay an academic foundation despite .  Teachers have the power to influence the path of tomorrow's potential leaders.  Though we hear of companies that invest in students, who cares about teachers?  How can we invest in the future without considering them?

Teachers can either assist in the building up or tearing down of an individual.   Considering they have this much impact, why aren't they paid more?  Economics and politics don't permit it.  The average teacher, in some states, doesn't even make enough money to buy a house.   Totally Teacher has found a way to help.   With teachers' pocketbooks in mind, Totally Teacher was founded.   Totally Teacher works diligently at finding and sharing "exclusive" teacher discounts on more than just teacher resources.   They consider teacher purchases as a whole - looking at both their professional and personal purchase trends.   Along with sharing already established discounts, Totally Teacher is dedicated to negotiating year-round discounts that aren't on the market.

Totally Teacher cares about teachers!  There is power in numbers.   Companies seek to make deals with those who have a great following!   Teachers, help Totally Teacher help you by telling us what discounts you wish for.   What year-round savings would you like?  Please share in the comments section below.  Please follow our blog and join Totally4Teachers community on Facebook.

Teachers...What Do You Wish For?

Currently there are 21 nationally known businesses that provide teachers nationwide savings year around.  (See http://www.totallyteacher.com/).  Sure, there are those that give discounts during a special Educator's Appreciation week, but not enough that give savings throughout the year.

We need your help!   Tell me who you wish would give savings year round and I'll pursue them on our behalf.   In 2011, Totally Teacher resolves to, on behalf of the 3M plus that have dedicated their careers to America's future, negotiate 25 new EXCLUSIVE TEACHER DISCOUNTS.  There is power in numbers, ladies and gentlemen, please post what you wish for.

Sincerely,
Totally Teacher
