Motivating! I love participating in this kind of events, because trying new things makes teaching fun for me. If I don't have fun teaching, my students won't have fun.

It was the most valuable event in my teaching career.
Just thanks for everything. It was great experience. I have learned a great amount of helpful tips and methodological advance.

It was very practical, easy to implement, relevant and a variety of exceptional presenters. Loved the resources shared and for me personally, to be able to watch asynchronous this training was a game changer, since I am currently living in Vietnam.

M. Sandifer

The activities and strategies that I can start using TODAY! So many templates, lesson ideas, or strategies that I can use immediately to improve my teaching. Many ideas are similar to things I already do, but added a small piece to make them more meaningful or effective.

Meet Your Summit Host

Jared Romey

Host of Teacher Summits and the World Language Teacher Summit, creator of Speaking Latino, and founder of the Spanish Teachers Community.

I have been around educators all my life. My mother worked in schools as a teacher’s aide starting when I was 6 or 7. My aunt spent her entire career as an elementary school teacher, and my mother-in-law was a middle and high school history teacher. My sister-in-law is a French and Spanish teacher.

And yes, even I had a brief stint as a university professor!

I love learning, and just as importantly, I love helping others learn. Whether it’s through my books on Spanish dialects and slang (12 of them so far!), helping my sons explore and experience new things, or through the educator summits I’ve been organizing since 2019, it’s been wonderful to support teachers, educators, and the learners they reach.

Somewhere near 100,000 teachers (honestly, I’ve lost track) have benefited from our online conferences, which means millions of students are benefiting as well.

This Classroom Management conference addresses a topic I know many teachers struggle with. Educators from around the world will be sharing their wisdom, ideas, and experiences with you over the next few days.

Please join me and thousands of teachers for this first Classroom Management Teacher Summit!
