“Taking a moment, a day, or a week to appreciate our teachers would never be enough! Our teachers are the backbone of all we do at American Institute. Every single day, they are front and center, sharing their passion for their work and each career, helping to strengthen the work force with new practitioners, and helping build futures for their students. We recognize their knowledge, dedication, and wisdom and hope they feel that appreciation every day!” shared Kim Colbert, Campus Director / Director of Education at the West Hartford, CT location.
In 2024, we provided special, commemorative laptop messenger bags to our instructors with our limited-edition logo celebrating the 100th anniversary for American Institute. Many of our instructors were on vacation during the week as it fell during a ‘break week’ for our classes, so our Directors of Education provided thanks via social media during the week and shared their gratitude for our #AIFamily teachers.
American Institute instructors are MVPs on each campus, sharing their knowledge and skills while inspiring and challenging our students (and us!) to continually learn and grow. Your ability to make us think, laugh, and learn all at the same time is what makes our students and staff eager to learn more.
“You are an amazing and dedicated group of professionals who make every day important for our students. Remember, ‘an educator affects eternity; you can never tell where their influence ends’!” said Tim Rodgers, Campus President / Director of Education in the Toms River, NJ campus.
Happy Teacher Appreciation Day to all the educators who make a difference in our lives!
