At Undead Institute we believe “getting braaains should be fun.” We’re trying to take stodgy and boring topics and inject them with life… errr… unlife(?)… very flustered You know what we mean. This is a place for the novice to become an expert and have fun doing it.
As an educator myself, I love to support educators. I have a bunch of free resources available for anyone to use, and a book bundle specifically aimed at supporting students in middle school through college and teachers.
