A person standing in front of a chalkboard or whiteboard, often holding a pointer. The figure represents an educator engaged in the act of explaining a lesson or presenting information to a group.

Usage Context

History

Added in Emoji 13.0 in 2020 as part of a push to increase professional representation within the emoji set. Before this, users relied on gender-specific versions like 👩‍🏫 or 👨‍🏫, but this version was introduced to provide a more neutral option for educational contexts.
