Future Former Teachers

In this final episode, I am joined by Tyler (www.tylerbanh.com), a genuine and humble expert in learning and development. He has supported numerous teachers in transitioning out of education and into their desired career paths. I had the pleasure of interviewing him (mid 2022) and in this episode, he shares his valuable insights on the necessary skills, what to include in a portfolio, your resume, and how to prepare for interviews. It's a must-listen for anyone considering a career change. Thank you all for joining me on this journey.
