Twitter chats are a great tool to connect and communicate with other teachers who share similar backgrounds, subjects, and grade levels. My Town Tutors has been fortunate to connect with some of the moderators of different #chats. These individuals have been kind enough to share posts with us explaining the goals of their chats.
