30-day free trial

In the US, A Teacher is only available on Hulu. The standard Hulu subscription is $5.99 per month and you’ll get a 30-day free trial, which is plenty of time to complete the series. Students can enjoy an even better deal with a student discount, bringing the monthly plan down to a very reasonable $1.99. Sadly, there’s no free trial included with this already rock-bottom offer. 

Hulu’s Basic plan is one of the cheapest on the market but it does have ads, which some may find off-putting. Hulu also offers a live TV plan that gives users access to over 65 cable channels. The Hulu + Live TV plan will cost you $64.99 per month and has a 7-day free trial. 

A basic Hulu subscription will give you access to a tremendous catalog of content. You’ll find famous classics like Twin Peaks, Seinfeld, and ER, and also modern hits like Little Fires Everywhere, The Handmaid's Tale, and Mrs. America.
