I have been teaching for as long as I can remember but I think my passion to teach really became strongest during my years of working in employability, particularly when I was working with people who had some extra barriers to overcome for them to be able to move forward.
Helping someone to regain their confidence and belief in themselves, supporting someone in recognising their potential, coaching them through an interview, witnessing their joy at getting a job after many years; that is a fabulous experience and a great feeling. It's that experience that enabled me to realise what actually makes me tick and then inspired me to retrain and change my own career path. (and I have never looked back!)
