Rate My Teachers Announces 2021 Teacher of the Year Awards

Baltimore, MD February 01, 2022 --(PR.com)-- Rate My Teachers (RMT) is pleased to announce the
second annual Teacher of the Year Awards. During a challenging time these educators distinguished
themselves with their creativity and commitment, earning the praise and gratitude of their students.

RMT is the Internet’s longest running rating site for K-12 and college teachers and courses. Its purpose is
to help answer a single question: “what do I as a student need to know to maximize my chance of success
in a given class?” Students have created more than 11 million reviews in the United States, Canada, the
United Kingdom, Ireland, New Zealand, and Australia.

This year, a total of forty-one teachers have been honored in four countries. Kevin Hollins, CEO of Rate
My Teachers said, “We are thrilled to announce the winners of the second annual RMT Teacher of the
Year Awards. The winners are determined by the students, and given how challenging school has been
