What is a DigiPal?

DigiPals is based on the very popular and amazing concept called Pen Pals. A pen pal is a person with whom one becomes friendly by exchanging letters, especially someone in a foreign country whom one has never met.

Technology advancements make pen pals more accessible than ever before as they allow us to connect with people from all around the world with efficiency and ease. Additionally, people can now further their communication and knowledge by collaborating on projects and other technological activities.

Due to this, we developed DigiPals - the digital friendly version of pen pals. We are the gateway to not just connecting you to another class but also a platform to communicate with your partner teacher, share your students' work and give you information and support to make this as easy and positive as possible.

What Teachers Say About Us

As a teacher, my goal has always been to provide a learning environment for my students that is engaging, based on inquiry, and authentic. If I can extend that learning beyond the walls of my classroom, that is even better. DigiPals has provided opportunities that allow me to provide educational experiences for my students that hits the mark in all areas.

The people at DigiPals are kind and friendly and in frequent communication with me. It feels like I am communicating with a friend. They understand the urgency of matching people together and work very hard to find the right teachers to work together. They have gone above and beyond to provide this amazing experience for my students and me.
