Video Submission Guidelines

How to Submit Your Teaching Sample

Follow our simple guidelines to create and submit a video that showcases your teaching skills

Video Requirements
What we look for in your teaching sample

Clear Audio and Video

Ensure your voice is clear and easy to understand. Good lighting so we can see you clearly.

Teaching Demonstration

Explain a concept or solve a problem in your subject area. Show your teaching style and personality.

Appropriate Length

Keep your video between 2-5 minutes. Long enough to showcase your skills, short enough to stay engaging.

Professional Presentation

Dress appropriately and choose a clean, distraction-free background.

Authentic Content

This should be you teaching, not someone else or a pre-recorded lecture. We want to see your genuine teaching ability.
