Give your teacher or a tutor a night away from grading with a gift card they can use at nearly any movie theater. (If you’re feeling really generous, pair it with a restaurant gift card so they can have a real night out on the town.)

Not everyone has gone fully digital—many teachers still use traditional pen and paper. Purchase them a high quality one that will add a bit of luxury to the day-to-day. This Chrome Ballpoint is a perfect choice; or if you know the teacher well, the brand also offers fun decorative pens such as Spider-Man or Captain America.
