“I never thought that the teachers would gossip more than the teenage students”
Meet Mike McQuillan:
Mike McQuillan moved from New York, USA to Lima, Peru to teach English as a foreign language.
Mike describes the last institute where he taught as a golden palace built on top of a toxic swamp. The systems worked, and the people were great, but the undercurrent of academic elitism and water cooler gossip undermined the teaching experience. He resigned in protest and now works full-time as a freelance public speaking coach.
We discuss:
➡ When he started noticing that gossip was such an issue in the education sector.
➡ Why the education sector is the worst in terms of gossip.
➡ Whether there are enough expectations to guide teachers’ behaviour? What can schools do about it?
➡ Whether Mike has ever worked in an environment that has been gossip-free?
➡ What can leaders do if they constantly have people coming to gossip about their teammates to the leader?
➡ The difference between ratting someone out and reporting misconduct.
➡ The biggest source of gossip these days...
➡ And so much more.
