Newsy
Teachers sharing more about their classroom and teaching style are making their rounds on TikTok, giving viewers a behind-the-scenes look at the job.
One of the biggest stages for TikTok is the classroom, and teachers are going viral.
"#TeachersOfTikTok" has over 30.5 billion views on the platform. The classroom content includes room tours, teaching tips, "story times" about experiences working in education and videos about the "days in the life" of a teacher.
"The era of the 'TikTok Teacher' started over quarantine when we all had too much free time," said Lauran Woolley, elementary school teacher and TikTok creator. "I actually began as a bet against one of my students. I found out he really liked TikTok, and he was making TikToks on his own. So I bet him that I could get more followers than he could by the end of year."
