MagicTeam Storytime: Ilana Bye, Lifelong Educator and MagicSchool Engineer

‍

‍
Ilana knows the educator’s struggle. “As a math teacher, I regularly incorporated YouTube videos to draw students into my lessons. Videos showcasing real-life applications of the math concepts we were about to learn served as perfect hooks. I watched videos at 1.5x or 2x speed to ensure they aligned with my teaching goals. If only I had the YouTube Video tools back then—it would have been a true time-saver."
