QUESTION of THE WEEK

My school purchased a license for all of our Teachers, which is great!! But now I have a password tied to my school account. I want to sign in with Google like I used to... How do I do it??

There are two ways to sign in to TeacherMade. One is with a username and password, and the other is by first logging in to your Google account, then using the convenient "Sign In With Google" feature on the sign in page.

If you created your own account and used the "Register With Google" button, you can click that "Sign In With Google" button and get right to work with TeacherMade.

But what if you created an account using a password, or the account was created for you with a password when your school purchased a license?
