So, Teacher Goals is a hub for educators that offers courses, books, podcasts, conferences, among many other things, including hosting an Instagram page dedicated to memes on all things teaching.
Bored Panda had a chat with founder and CEO of TeacherGoals, Brad Weinstein, who elaborated on what TeacherGoals is all about:
"TeacherGoals is an organization dedicated to helping educators through the good times and the hard times through inspiration, innovation, and some humor. We truly believe that sometimes we need to laugh so that we don't cry in such an important, but demanding profession."
"TeacherGoals started out as a Twitter page back in 2014 when I wanted to create an account dedicated to making each day better for educators. I was a teacher at the time and experienced firsthand how frustrating being an educator can be and how educators also had little support," explained Brad.
So, Brad started posting inspirational content with the purpose of celebrating educators and the impact they had on students. This also served as a safe way for educators to vent their frustrations as teaching isn't the easiest of jobs.
"This is when I started posting humorous content that really connected with educators because of how relatable it was to their everyday jobs. Once I found the right combination of posting content that is funny, frustrating, and fantastic about teaching, the account started to grow at a quick rate.
Since then, Brad moved on to create a TeacherGoals account for Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, Pinterest, LinkedIn, and TikTok.
As of this article, the Instagram page boasts over 10,800 posts that have drawn in 225,000 followers, with the top posts racking up upwards of 250,000 likes, so you know this is the real deal. Among the sprinkles of website marketing material and some inspiration, the page consists mostly of some of the most spot-on memes about teachers.
Speaking of memes, there’s tons of them, and they seem to cover every corner of the educator profession.
Professional pains? You've got the pain of grading assignments, the pain of not being able to find a functional stapler, the pain of dealing with politicians' decisions regarding classroom sizes and other pressing issues, among many others.
But there’s also happiness to be found, like when you overhear someone say you’re their favorite teacher, or when you get a portrait of you some kid drew and you’re re-evaluating your life choices, and the joys of Spring Break.
Is this a real song or something? I have no Younglings so I am not sure if I am missing a reference.
It's a Song from the movie "Encanto" :we don't talk about Bruno ,no,no,no... My kids ONLY Sing this 1000000 Times a day😱
Load More Replies...We don't talk about Bruno, no, no, no~ we don't talk about Bruno~ But! It was my wedding day
I read this as "This class has gone egg days without singing "We Don't Talk About Bruno""
Please don't sing about Bruno, no no no! Please don't sing about Bruuuuuunoooo!
My pastor the week after encanto was released was talking about the holy spirit, and how we don't talk about it. He legitimately said "We don't talk about yhe holy spirit... No... No... No..." (Laughter) "...And whoever just laughed has seen the new Disney movie." Best. Moment. Ever.
We don't talk about Bruno, no, no, no! We don't talk about Bruno... but It was my wedding day It was our wedding day We were getting ready, and there wasn't a cloud in the sky No clouds allowed in the sky Bruno walks in with a mischievous grin- Thunder!! You telling this story, or am I? I'm sorry, mi vida, go on Bruno says, "It looks like rain" Why did he tell us? In doing so, he floods my brain Abuela, get the umbrellas Married in a hurricane What a joyous day... but anyway We don't talk about Bruno, no, no, no! We don't talk about Bruno! Hey! Grew to live in fear of Bruno stuttering or stumbling I could always hear him sort of muttering and mumbling I associate him with the sound of falling sand, ch-ch-ch It's a heavy lift, with a gift so humbling Always left Abuela and the family fumbling Grappling with prophecies they couldn't understand Do you understand? A seven-foot frame Rats along his back When he calls your name It all fades to black Yeah, he sees your dreams And feasts on yo
I've gone at most 12 seconds without singing it in my head... Encanto, what have you done to me...
WATCH ENCANTO THE MOVIE PLEASE!!! you will learn so much about life 👍👍
We had a dress up day this week. I teach preschool and came as Pepa. I also printed out sun, clouds, and a storm on card stock and attached them to sticks and took on her personality. I wish I could do this every day because it was a fantastic day
Unpopular opinion but Surface Pressure was the best song in that movie!
For those of you who don’t know what this means ….. just keep scrolling I say!!! Don’t do it! Don’t look it up I warn you! You’ll NEVER get it out of your head!!! Scroll! I say Scroll!!! Lol 😱😜
That is like all of my classes but the opposite because my classes can not go five minutes without braking out in song
we don't talk about Bruno.. no. no. no. we don't talk about bruno.......... BUT! (next person PLEEZ keep the song going)
Awesome movie! My Grands love it! 2yo has watched at least 20x since it came on Disney.
My kids, who are in their late 20s now, used to sing Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey together so often when they were kids that they figured out which part each was supposed to sing and mastered the funny voices. To this day, whenever they get together, they all sing it and still get the timing and voices perfect. And THAT'S why the classics never stop being classic.
Guess I will watch this movie to many memes and conversations about it. I don't have kids but I watch the heck out of Disney I gotta be able to keep up when the Nieves and nephews are talking.
My daughter teaches third grade and they know all the words and sing it almost daily. Great song!
my class needs this except i sing surface pressure and make funny remixes of we don't talk about bruno and faceoff
"The content on TeacherGoals is fueled by my experience as a coach, teacher, principal, and curriculum director. I still have a lot of friends and families that are educators, in addition to still working very closely with educators and students at schools," elaborated Brad.
"Our original content is inspired by the TeacherGoals community, personal experiences, and what is currently happening in schools and the world. We also spotlight and share content from great educator accounts around the world."
thats very smart. best way to stop kids from taking all the pencils.
Brad believes that memes are key in capturing the amazing things that educators do and also one of the best ways to vent frustrations.
"Memes are a quick, yet impactful way to see that educators around the world have so many things in common that they go through, no matter where they teach. Memes are also an escape where we can shut our brains off a little and consume content in a quick and easy format," said Brad.

The snapped leg threw me. But I actually broke my chin at recess, and that was all the advise I got. My mom, who was a HS teacher, worked across the street, but was never notified.
Unfortunately it's the same at our fire department. Mandatory overtime is through the roof!
For me it's the opposite... the class does what they want until the lesson is observed, then they immediately turn turn into perfect but silent/shy students.
I think one of my biggest NOT-regrets was joining the teaching profession full time in state schools. I did a lot of private teaching, college teaching, special needs teaching and tutoring, as well as engaging in many state school remedial programs. But I am so, so glad that I never bit the bullet and joined full time. And the reason I didn't is because I had to get some of my non-US qualifications assessed at a company in New York before I could start work. And that company was in downtown Manhattan. And it was mostly destroyed and the contents lost in a fire. That was caused by the attack on the World Trade Center on 9/11. So terrorism saved me from becoming a full time teacher in the USA.
Aw, sounds like you were plenty involved anyway
Load More Replies...The kids hate school as much as the teachers do. It’s a lose lose situation. The education system needs a complete rethink. Take the kids outside and teach them useful things like how to grow a vegetable garden and how to love and respect and work with nature. Not how to grow up to be a robotic slave to the capitalist machine.
