In this video, I’m sharing my VIPKid story—why I started, what I was really hoping for back then, and why I’ve stayed through the ups and downs. This is a heart-to-heart update from me because I know so many teachers feel overwhelmed, discouraged, or like they’re the only one struggling. You’re not. I talk honestly about the emotional side of online teaching and what kept me going when things felt hard. I also explain how I support teachers who are applying and trying to get hired: I offer free on-demand coaching, a confidential hiring guide, and a community for my referrals so you don’t have to figure everything out alone. If you’ve already applied and want to connect your application to me as your referring teacher, I share exactly what to do (email me ASAP) so you can still get linked and access those perks. My biggest takeaway: you can do this, and you deserve support while you build confidence on camera and in class.
