Why Join AwaytoTeach?
When you become a member of AwaytoTeach - you join a group of educators, artists, students, and others who are interested in using the actual texts of great literature to bring that literature to life. There is absolutely no cost or obligation - there is no fee - there are no ads. The minute you join you can immediately post on our forums, and search our content. If you want to download lessons, view Illuminated Texts, use Antexts (annotated texts), or listen to audio - you will have to contribute to the site with your ideas, and a little bit of your time. If you upload one original lesson (or post 10 thoughtful comments, add 50 quotes, or contribute in one of the many other ways to earn points) you will be given access to everything on our site. Thanks for being here - and we look forward to seeing you online.
