1. New Career Pathways for Teachers

Welcome to the very first episode of Educator Forever! To kick things off, I want to share my story of why I left the classroom after discovering all of the new and exciting career pathways for teachers. My story begins in a way that’s probably very familiar to you. I had been teaching for several years and I was burnt out. The realization hit me that my salary wasn’t increasing, and yet I didn’t have the time or energy to get another job. I didn’t want to become an administrator, so what other options were there? Well, it turns out that there were (and still are) many. I learned that there were actually countless other career pathways for teachers that allowed me to use my existing skills and still make an impact on the world of education. Better yet, I felt empowered and invigorated in these roles. My skills were valued, and I gained time and financial freedom that I had never experienced before.These new career pathways are available to you as well. There is a huge need for your skills. Did you know that there are people creating education products who literally have zero classroom experience? They need you! Inside this episode you’ll hear some of the many ways that you too can work flexibly in education to expand your impact and your income.Head to the show notes for all links and resources mentioned in this episode: https://www.educatorforever.com/episode1Watch our free on-demand workshop to learn more about flexible work opportunities beyond the classroom: https://www.educatorforever.com/workshopTake our free quiz to discover your next career step: https://www.educatorforever.com/quizFollow us on Instagram @educatorforever.
