Traditional advertising is still omnipresent in our daily lives: press, urban billboards, TV and radio. However, brands in all fields are increasingly turning to influencer marketing. Education companies are also adept at this strategy. Who are the key figures in the sector who can be real communication levers? Here are the top 7 education influencers in France.

Dr. Nozman, the scientific influencer

Germain O’Livry was born on January 2nd 1990 in Brittany. French graphic designer and video artist, he has millions of subscribers on the Youtube platform. He started in 2009 with a channel about video games, then created the character of Dr. Nozman in 2011. As an education and science influencer, he covers topics such as biology, chemistry and object mechanics. His biggest fans? Fred and Jamy, the scientific duo of the 90’s who crossed France by truck and popularized scientific subjects in their TV show. Dr. Nozman was inspired by it and made a hit. He does his own research and writes all the texts, which he has validated by experts. He is considered the most popular French-speaking popularizer of science on Youtube.

 

 

Cyrus North, the philosopher 2.0

Cyrus North is passionate about philosophy. In his videos entitled Le coup de Phil’, he spends ten minutes explaining a thought or concept. With humour, he teaches philosophy to his thousands of subscribers on Youtube. Born in 1990 in Clamart, he studied business in Bordeaux where he met his friend and co-author Tom Aguilar during an internship. He founded his first channel in 2013. Since then, he has presented a daily show on the website 20 minutes, collaborated with France TV éducation, Google Arts & culture, the Louvre Museum and is currently presenting the web series Homo digitalis on Arte. Another channel, created in 2017 and co-written with Tom, focuses on middle and high school curricula. Thanks to his quirky tone and pop culture references, the philosopher-influencer is a huge success and fascinates thousands of teenagers.

 

Mistresses in Sneakers, teacher influencers

Nina and Anaïs form the Mistresses in Sneakers. These two teachers met during their training and are still together. Their Instagram account has about 30,000 followers and they share lots of information about being a teacher on their blog, as well as curriculum-related teaching resources. They are also intended for those who wish to take the CRPE exam to become a school teacher. They are taking advantage of their micro-influencers’ hats in education and teaching in France to invest in a humanitarian project, that of participating in the construction of a school in the Moroccan desert.
