hey there

Thank you for stopping by Teacher Bistro.  I created this place as a resource for educators who wanted a easy way to find resources.  In my first ten years of teaching I can’t tell you how many hours I spent gathering lesson plans, video guides and lectures.  Hopefully, you have added this site to your bookmarks, and this place can make teaching a little bit easier.
