About TeachAnyClass

Chris Sowton

TeachAnyClass was created by Chris Sowton, a teacher, trainer, and writer with over 25 years of experience working in classrooms around the world. He has worked with teachers in many different contexts, including low-resource settings, large classes, and areas affected by conflict and inequality.

His work focuses on a key idea: every teacher, everywhere, should have access to clear, practical, high-quality teaching resources. In many parts of the world, teachers work with limited materials, little support, and challenging conditions—but still need to deliver meaningful learning.

Teaching in Challenging Circumstances book

These ideas are central to his book Teaching in Challenging Circumstances, which offers practical strategies for teaching large classes, working with few resources, and supporting learners in difficult situations.

TeachAnyClass brings this thinking into one simple platform. It provides flexible, ready-to-use resources that teachers can apply immediately, without needing expensive materials or complex training.

In today’s world, with growing inequality, conflict, and disruption to education, giving teachers access to high-quality resources is more important than ever. Supporting teachers is one of the fastest ways to improve learning for millions of students.
