Discussing Teaching Experiences: Interstate, Department and Private Schools with Cath McPhillips
In this episode, I chat with Cath McPhillips — a brilliant educator who’s experienced it all: classroom teaching, support roles, and working across both public and private sectors.
Cath opens up about the challenges and joys of each teaching environment, how she’s stayed grounded through the shifts, and what matters most when building connection and impact in any role.
Whether you’re teaching in a school, leading a team, or mentoring others — you’ll find inspiration in Cath’s honest and thoughtful reflections.
