Listen Later

Jo chats to Wendy, who is now an education assessor and centre manager, about how she found a pathway where she could continue teaching and imparting knowledge without all the politics and policy burdens of schools. She shares how transferable our teaching skills are and how our experiences can be used to support others in their learning.  As Wendy says:
"The skills we've got as teachers are second to none!"

- Wendy's varied professional career.
