a .
There are plenty of prizes for good students but now there is an award for the best teacher
in the world. * It aims to celebrate the work of teachers and recognise
how important their work is. The organisers believe that good teachers can change the
lives of their students for the better.
The award started in 2015, It is open to all teachers in every country of the world. In its
first year, over 6,000 teachers from 127 countries took part. So far, the winners have come
from the US, Palestine, Canada, the UK and Kenya. » Every year the
winner receives one million dollars to spend on education in their community.
‘The 2019 winner was a teacher called Peter Tabichi. He teaches in a village school in
a semi-desert area of Kenya. His class, like all the classes in his school, has over 50
students in it. Most of his students are from very poor families and the school has hardly
Got any classroom furniture and very little equipment, Despite these
problems, this teacher started a ‘talent club’ to help his students. Some of them have
even taken part in international science competitions. He also gives extra help to students
with difficulties and regularly meets their families. In only three years,
Tabichi’s class has grown from 200 to 400 students.
' In fact, the chosen teachers are always very proud of their success.
However, they know they are only there because of their students. For a small school in
poor area, the prize money can make a huge difference to the school, its present and
future students, as well as the whole local community,

My Science teacher,
Mrs Millington,
is a really amazing person.
She's in her forties, but she’s only been a
teacher for five years. You'd never know she
hasn’t got very much experience because she’s
excellent in the classroom. She never has any
trouble from students because her lessons
are so interesting that everyone just listens to
everything she says. She's really enthusiastic
about Science and knows how to make her
lessons interesting,
Before she was a teacher, she spent more
than 20 years working as a research scientist
She worked at a lab in Australia for two years.
She also took part in some international
experiments, so she’s travelled a lot. She brings
all these experiences into the classroom and
she explains why Science is so important in
the real world. She laved her job, but she got
tired of travelling so much and she wanted to
work regular hours. That’s when she made
the decision to become a teacher, It seemed
to be the perfect opportunity to finally follow
her dream, I'm so happy she did. She's such
a warm and positive person that when you're
in her lessons, you don’t even feel you're
at school.
