YouTube = Learning at Your Fingertips!

There are so many ways to learn with YouTube channels for teachers and students!

30+ YouTube Channels for Teachers

When you want to learn something new these days, most of us head over to YouTube.

You can learn just about anything on YouTube: how to fix your dryer, how to create a blog, or how to use Google Docs.

For students, YouTube is often their first stop when learning a new skill.

Did you know you can also get notifications when new videos have been added by your favorite channels?

Or that you can use YouTube as a curation tool to create playlists for your students?

Today, I am going to share with you some of my favorite YouTube Channels, and some that were shared in the Shake Up Learning community.

Just about all of your favorite educational organization and bloggers have a YouTube channel.

When you subscribe, you can set up notifications when something new has been posted.

Be sure you are subscribed to the Shake Up Learning YouTube Channel to get the latest tutorials and tips!

This is a great way to stay up-to-date with innovative tools like G Suite for Education.

30+ YouTube Channels for Teachers

1. Alice Keeler

Alice is a fantastic blogger and Google Certified Innovator who freely shares her Google tips and tricks online. She is my go-to resource for all things Google Classroom. She is also the spreadsheet queen! Follow her blog and her channel!


2. Amoeba Sisters

“Two sisters on a mission to demystify science with humor and relevance by creating free videos, GIFs, handouts, and comics.”


3. Bozeman Science

Paul Andersen has created hundreds of science videos that have been viewed millions of times by learners around the world. His video essentials for AP Biology, AP Chemistry, AP Environmental Science, and AP Physics 1&2 are aligned to the AP curriculum. He also has created a series of videos on the Next Generation Science Standards.


4. Brave Wilderness

“The Brave Wilderness Channel is your one stop connection to a wild world of adventure and amazing up close animal encounters!”


5. Crash Course

“Tons of awesome courses in one awesome channel! Nicole Sweeney teaches you sociology, Carrie Anne Philbin teaches you computer science, Craig Benzine teaches film history, and Mike Rugnetta is teaching mythology!”


6. FriedTechnology

8. Google for Education

If you are a G Suite for Education user, this is a must channel for you.

11. Google Help

There are so many Google-owned YouTube channels, so I tried to share the ones I find the most useful. Google Help offers just that–help with Google Apps and devices. But what I really like here are the videos that are available in other languages like Spanish, Vietnamese and more. Great way to support ELL!


12. Google Science Fair

Google offers an incredible opportunity for students 13-18 to be part of a global science fair! Subscribe to this channel to get all the details, and watch videos of the finalists.

Jeff Bradbury hosts the TeacherCast podcast, and a few others, AND shares tons of resources, webinars and tutorials through his YouTube Channel. Subscribe to learn about new apps and gain access to FREE professional development for educators.


16. Learn French with Alexa

No, not the Amazon Echo we call Alexa. This is a real-life teacher named Alexa! “People from all over the world enjoy learning how to speak French with Alexa’s popular online video and audio French lessons. They’re fun, friendly and stress-free! It’s like she’s actually sitting there with you, helping you along.”

    Hey Kasey
    Hope life is well since our ATX experience. Your list of 20 channels inspired me to make a list of my own since I am a huge curator of youtube videos for my students. I subscribed to about 200 channels and I check them as often as I can.
    Here’s a link to my TOP 20:
