Brooke Thurston | Instructor

PLS Classes Instructor Since 2009

Brooke is a third grade teacher in Illinois. When she’s not teaching, she enjoys being with family and being outdoors. Together with her family they love to travel, see National Parks, and go on adventures together. Brooke is also a huge sports fan, including football, baseball, and especially her hometown Chicago teams.

Why did you want to become an educator?

I have always wanted to be a teacher. When I was younger, I would play teacher with my siblings and friends. When I got to middle school, I had a 6th grade teacher (who was brand new) and she and I had an amazing connection. She made me feel safe in her classroom and I knew I wanted to do that for my own students some day.

Why do you like teaching PLS Classes?

I love being able to connect with people from around the U.S and world. Seeing how others teach helps me to continue to learn and grow in the classroom. I think this is true because we, as teachers, are always learning and growing.
