In the upcoming Twitter chat we will take a look at job security and becoming more aware of ourselves as workers as well as teachers. We all want and need to stay employed but is the onus on our employers or on us to make sure that we are employable in a sector that is always changing?

Or could it be that we are looking at things completely the wrong way –  do we really need to ‘proof’ ourselves or should we be less reactive and plan ways to develop a more sustainable relationship with our future in TESOL?

A little light pre-reading to get you thinking about the topic in this SMH article.
