Teachers don’t get feedback on their teaching - Jesper Bergmann (Teacherspace)

EdTech Founders

In this episode: We interview Jesper Bergmann, co-founder and CEO at startup Teacherspace, who makes it easy for teachers (in K12) to get quality feedback on their classroom by providing them with mentors and unique qualitative and quantitative insights. Jesper is based in Copenhagen, Denmark.

We talk about: The challenges of being a teacher and lack of support, how technology is not the solution to everything in the classroom, how you need to be prepared that solving big problems in K12 will take time, finding co-founders and lots more.

Outtakes:

• A lot of people who know a lot about technology, but don't really understand teachers and learning will fail by trying to create products that are way too techy.
• We know how difficult it is to really change something in education, so we don't try to pretend this is a quick fix or this will be a miracle or everything will change overnight.
• We are just at the beginning of trying to think about what could a much better experience and support for teachers look like.
