Larry Lexicon, whose real name is Ryan Price, is an AP English teacher at Buckingham Collegiate Charter Academy located in Vacaville, California. He established his online persona on TikTok with the initial objective of promoting the Vocabulary Bowl, an annual competition his English students participate in. His goal was to acquire 500 followers, which was approximately the student population of his charter school at the time. By the conclusion of the first year, Price had accumulated over a million followers, significantly exceeding his initial expectations. His TikTok account now boasts approximately two million followers and 74 million likes.
Price’s content frequently features skits and comedic videos produced within his classroom setting. One notable early viral skit involved his use of a school mascot, a golden retriever puppy named Buck, to motivate students for the Vocabulary Bowl. This particular video garnered six and a half million views. While the video was a staged comedic piece, it led to a period of administrative leave for Price due to public reactions. However, school administration was supportive, and he was reinstated. The success of his teaching methods is consistently demonstrated by his students’ performance, including winning the national Vocabulary Bowl every year since their participation began. His AP Literature students have also consistently achieved high scores on their annual exams.
Over the past five years, Price has continued to create videos, with the ongoing support of the school administration. What initially started as five minutes at the end of class has since evolved into a dedicated free period once a week for producing TikTok content. This period, known as KEEP, is open to juniors and seniors who wish to participate in the video creation process. Price’s online presence provides insights into the lives of teenagers, and he frequently expresses admiration for his students’ intelligence and capabilities, often stating that they are significantly more intelligent than he was at their age.
