Center for Inspired Teaching is a social change nonprofit organization that champions the power of curiosity and is dedicated to transforming the school experience from compliance-based to engagement-based. Inspired Teaching provides transformative, improvisation-based professional learning for teachers that is 100% engaging - intellectually, emotionally, and physically. Inspired Teaching transforms the PreK-12 school system by cultivating changemaking educators who authentically engage their students as active learners and empathetic critical thinkers.
