New Teaching Horizons: Recent Episodes

Becky Zerr

55% of educators are considering leaving the classroom according to a recent NEA study. But are you stuck? Not at all. There is a world full of possibilities outside of the traditional classroom. Sign up to follow my podcast as I share how I did the unthinkable by: 1) Overcoming the Guilt of Leaving: My goodness, there is a lot of guilt surrounding teaching--both staying and leaving. But I promise you, you can overcome it and stop apologizing for searching for happiness. 2) Finding My Love of Teaching Again: A funny thing happened when I stepped away from the bureaucracy and behavior issues--I rediscovered my passion for teaching and rediscovered ME. Where had I been? Drowning in stress. 3) Forging My Own Path: It's been a bumpy road for sure, but I found what worked best through trial-and-error. Now, I run my own teaching business, New Horizons Academy, and employ four wonderful teachers and two amazing assistants. Everyday, I get to teach what I want to teach, when I want to teach it, and how I want to teach it. Who knew that was possible? So join me on this journey. You deserve it.
