WTBOTT Season 2 Episode 21: We've Gotta Get Out Of This Place: Life After Teaching

Will This Be On The Test? Teacher Pod

We all have daydreamed about what we'd do if we won the Powerball. But do we have to wait for that 1 in 1 billion chance to leave teaching? According to Zachary Long, the originator (along with his wife, Brittany) of the Facebook group "Life After Teaching: Educator Options Beyond the Classroom" the answer is a resounding NO! This group (https://www.facebook.com/groups/495865574323107), as well as the accompanying website (https://lifeafterteaching.com/), has so many resources and so much advice and conversation for either leaving the profession, or starting up a side gig to supplement your income. So if you've had enough of kids ignoring you, admin asking you to do ridiculous tasks, and parents blaming you for pretty much everything, take a listen to this episode, and check out the Life After Teaching: Educator Options Beyond the Classroom Facebook group!

We also dive into crappy jobs and job interviews, great moments in sports, and how being sick without having to act like you care about your classroom (aka writing sub plans) is definitely still not great, but slightly less awful.

Thanks to Max Siskind, of the "Max and Maks in the Morning" podcast, for voicing our intro.
