Can’t quite believe I’m 2.5 months into my PhD!

It’s been surreal, tiring and intellectually stimulating.

The fact that I get to research and write about issues that move my soul 😍

Happy birthday @rengsn!

The past 8.5 years has been a burden.

Interviewed a teacher who left the profession last year.

Why did you resign?

“I have a Master’s degree.
I work really hard.
I love teaching kids and am great at my job.
I do it all for a disgracefully low salary.
All of that and I’ve never felt so disrespected by so many.”
