Educator Forever

Are you one of the many teachers who work way too many hours? Maybe you’re the teacher who is the first to arrive at school and the last to leave, or the teacher who works on the weekends, leaving little time for rest. Our guest, April Brown, was once a teacher like that too until she discovered the many options of flexible work in education. 

After going through my course, Beyond the Classroom, April realized that there were really so many ways for her to leverage her teaching skills outside of the classroom, while still driving change within the classroom. Over the years, she’s had the opportunity to work in various positions from curriculum development to being an instructional coach for educators, and many in between.

The thing that April loves most about flexible work in education is that her work can ebb and flow depending on the season of life that she’s in. Inside this episode, you’ll get to hear April share her experiences with the roles that she’s had, and how you too can be an advocate for students and teachers, whether you’re inside or outside of the classroom.

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.
