It’s Time to Let Loose! Being Open to New Possibilities on Your Teacher Career Change Journey

“I can’t do this anymore.”

Secondary Science teacher, Susanna, was done with the classroom - but not with teaching! Still with a great passion for learning and for her subject, it was the commute, the pressure, and all those extra duties that were really taking a toll and brought her to the realisation that it was time for something new. 

Now a STEM educator for neurodivergent learners with online alternative provision Gaia Learning, Susanna is embracing the opportunity to be creative, enjoy flexibility in her life, deliver future-focused education that puts the learner first, and be a part of an inspiring working culture that truly values her. 

In this episode, we’re chatting: 

• Feeling drained in the classroom
