Hello Reader, About few years into my teaching career, I realized there were some big issues I needed to address:
This is also roughly the time when I heard about the Google Certified Trainer program. I applied, was accepted, and five years later, made the jump to a full-time edtech coach and consultant. I don't know what the right path is for you, but I do know that investing in your personal growth and development is always a good idea! Next week I am kicking off the Google Trainer Academy for educators who are looking to move into new roles or supplement their current income as a Google Certified Trainer. Would you like to join me and small group of other teachers? Academy Details:
Note: this cohort is intentionally limited to 25 participants so that I can provide individual support to everyone. You can view more information on the course including a full outline by visiting GoogleTrainerAcademy.com. The Google Trainer program has transformed my career! I'm thrilled to guide a small group of educators on this journey. Let's make this your next big adventure! Feel free to click reply if you have any questions. I hope you can join me! John R. Sowash is a former HS biology teacher and principal who helps teachers use technology to improve instruction. You can pick up a copy of his book, read his blog, or invite him to come and visit your school |

✴️ The Google Trainer Academy starts April 16! Join the wait list! ✴️ Hi Reader!
