In the past year teachers have been super-human heroes pivoting on a dime to continue to teach our children in the face of a global pandemic. In May of 2020 it seemed they were finally getting the respect and attention they deserved. By September of 2020 the pendulum had swung and teachers were the focus of controversy and derision.
Throughout all of that Jon Hinthorne has kept his focus on his students. Leading and supporting them with love, and doing his damndest to be a voice of calm rationality in a crazy world.
While he self-describes as "just a Spanish teacher from California" the truth is that Jon is leading a movement to find better ways to teach, lead, and heal our children. His project An Unconventional Teacher celebrates new approaches that help to captivate and engage students raised with YouTube, smart phones, and Google. He's pretty freakin' awesome!
