Find a Class with Google Maps

TeachStreet

TeachStreet is an an easy way for teachers, schools, and students to connect and find one another. The site lets learners find classes that are right for them and in their neighbourhood. The aim is to help people find experts in their own neighbourhoods who can teach them face-to-face.

It is possible to search the TeachStreet listings by subject and by location. So, for example, it is possible to search for yoga lessons in New York. The results of a search are then displayed in list form and on a Google Map.

It is possible to refine your search results by distance and price. TeachStreet also allows users to rate and review listings so learners can see what other people think of a teacher / instructor / class before signing up to a class.

This is our v1 API, and we welcome any feedback and questions from your readers. We've already fixed some first bugs around lat/lon verbiage, etc. and can promptly make any modifications if there are obvious missing (or desired) elements.

If a developer comes up with a sample (or full) app, please let us know, as we'll help to promote the app/mashup via our customer base.

Thanks,

Dave (Schappell)
