We’re back with Part 2 of our unfiltered conversation with Sol, an English teacher from Argentina, and this time we go deeper. In this episode, we talk about what it really costs to love this profession — emotionally, financially, and mentally. We discuss teacher salaries, the myth of “doing it for the passion,” burnout, and what happens when caring becomes a burden. It’s honest, bold, and necessary. Because teaching isn’t just a calling — it’s a career, and one that deserves respect, support, and fair compensation.
