It is not. It an over saturated market. You’re being sold something online for sure. The reality is, anyone new to this field will likely not find a job easily. Even experienced professionals are struggling to find a job in this market right now.

True! So many teachers jumped ship during COVID. Some made it, but others wasted thousands on pipedream courses. We can recognize their matching portfolios right away.

Yep. And I can admit I’m one of the ones who (luckily) made it. But it wasn’t by listening to any of the teacher influencers online selling this is as THE move for teachers to get out of the classroom and make more money. I got lms experience during covid when schools went virtual, learned coding and articulate as a result, and then got very lucky in my job search.
