I make fun educational games to inspire students and make education more fun for teachers too. I do this because I noticed that education these days is more challenging than ever - if you’ve ever seen a tired teacher or a bored millennial, you’ll know what I mean! More and more students are disengaged in the classroom, but curriculum and distance learning demands mean that many of us teachers are struggling to stay above water, let alone find the time to come up with new ideas for learning. My aim is to empower teachers with digital games that hook students on learning that is fun AND meaningful. My resources are simple to use, but highly interactive and challenging to engage even your most reluctant students. I wanted these resources to be something a teenage boy might be interested in, and something really easy to use within existing platforms too (think Google classroom or Zoom, etc.) - simply your students a link and they’re good to go. The best part is that everything works in the browser, which means you can spend less time being the class tech support, and more time teaching. So whether you're a time-poor teacher, a parent juggling a job while home-schooling, or a student looking to level up your skills... GameWise can help cure your distance learning headaches, free up your day, and reignite your school experience. So go GameWise, and make your learning fun. How did I do? Too cheesy? ;P **CONNECT WITH ME** Gil’s [GameWise Blog]( https://www.gogamewise.com/) – Discuss gamification! [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/gogamewise/) – Share your success stories!
