This week on Fraction of a Teacher, we’re diving into work-life balance and how to make teaching a sustainable career. Special guest and fellow trainee teacher, Sophia, joins us to share her experience and insights, bringing a fresh perspective to the conversation. She is our social media wizard who does so much behind the scenes, and we are thrilled to have her on.
In this episode, we talk about:
✅ Finding balance – How do we avoid burnout while juggling lesson planning, job hunting, and personal life?
✅ Time management strategies – From bullet journaling to shared calendars, what systems work best for teachers?
✅ Job updates! – Francis shares the outcome of his interview (spoiler: exciting news!).
✅ Personal reflections – How do we track our growth as teachers, and what fraction of a teacher do we feel like right now?
This is a must-listen for anyone thinking about longevity in teaching and looking for practical strategies to stay organised, energised, and motivated. Plus, expect plenty of laughs, reflections, and maybe even a debate about improper fractions!
