Abstract
Teacherpreneur models take on a variety of different forms. Most are practiced within the typical classroom in a general educational environment, but others are not. This chapter educates the reader on the different teacherpreneur models (classroom teacherpreneur, consultant teacherpreneur, business teacherpreneur), demonstrates what each entails, and concludes with a section about innovative online approaches that can be implemented. Teacherpreneurs can work in more than one model at the same time or only address one depending on their own innovations, creativity, motivation, and what their school contract permits them to do. These models illustrate the steps a teacherpreneur might follow to move through the various levels of teacherpreneurship on their own, if desired, or highlight for the administrator how they might implement certain practices within a school to foster teacherpreneurship among staff.
