About
Classroom systems built in a real classroom, so you get your time back.
Hi, I’m Mari Kono.
I taught for 25 years in Los Angeles, one of the most diverse cities in the world. I’m a Board-Certified Career Technical Education teacher, and I taught Digital Media, Graphic Design, and Yearbook.
In my early years, I worked so hard to make everything work. I spent many days staying late, just trying to keep up with the rhythm of the school year. Then I started building systems: a room set up so students find supplies without asking, a plan for how grading gets done, and support built right into lessons. I got my time back and I was happier, and my students did so much better too.
I wish someone had handed me those systems on day one. Digital Classroom Toolbox is how I hand them to you.
