TeachBeyond began on the western Canadian prairies in the 1950s when Leo Janz committed himself to bringing the biblical message of hope to post-war Germany. Several members of his extended family joined him to create The Janz Brothers Gospel Association. Key events in our history include:
Today TeachBeyond’s primary emphases are on educational initiatives such as schools, English language camps, teacher education, professional seminars, and much more. Currently TeachBeyond owns or operates 16 schools and programs and additionally has sent more than 600 educators to work in more than 30 other educational institutions, serving populations pre-kindergarten through graduate school, in formal and informal settings. TeachBeyond uses the medium of education to engage with the needs of the world—physical, relational, and spiritual.
Our educators use their skills and contexts to bring Christ’s light and hope to children and adults—the same biblical hope and gospel message Leo Janz was sharing in 1954.
