Teachers are amazing. Year after year, they commit to doing everything they can for their students. They spend their own money to create beautiful classrooms, collaborate to share ideas for engaging lessons, and lose sleep worrying about how to make life better for their students. That’s why every year we celebrate World Teachers’ Day.
When is World Teachers’ Day 2021?
World Teachers’ Day takes place every year on October 5. In 2021, it falls on a Tuesday. In honor of World Teachers’ Day, here’s a collection of photos to show that neither national borders nor a pandemic can stop teachers from doing their important work.
