Not everyone knows what they want to be when they grow up - even when they are grown up. But for Wendy Troe, it was always very clear. She was going to be a teacher.From a young age Wendy loved public speaking and was passionate about sharing knowledge.This episode was a particularly special one for me. I was lucky enough to have Wendy as my English teacher in high school. If you don't know her, or if you've never experienced Mrs Troe in her element - in this conversation you're about to get a small taste of just how fabulous she is. This is a woman who has inspired countless students to fall in love with all things reading and writing. Her impact is evident as many of her ex pupils continue to keep in touch - and still to this day cite Wendy as one of their favourite teachers of all time - and I'm happy to vouch for that. Because that's what she is. Through and through. Wendy was born to be an educator.It is an absolute honour that today I get to share with you the story of someone who has impacted my life greatly. The one, the only - Wendy Troe.CreditsHost: Monika O'HanlonSpecial thanks to Wendy Troe To read some of Wendy's beautiful work head to her blog Gin in a Jam Jar at https://gininajamjarblog.wordpress.com/Thanks to Gove FMTo get in touch email:monika_ohanlon@hotmail.comhttps://www.facebook.com/listen.with.mon/ See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
