The teachers play an important role in the iQ Academy program, just as they do in traditional schools. In iQ Academy, however, teachers do much more individualized one-to-one instruction and support, allowing them to meet individual learning needs of the students enrolled in their courses. Teachers have "office hours" and hold weekly sessions during which students can ask questions and have discussions with their teacher and classmates. Teachers are also available by phone and email, and students are encouraged to contact their teachers with questions.
