Looking for a teaching mentor: Manoj's career change at 53
Manoj, a security guard, is retraining for teaching and is looking for a mentor for monthly calls over four months.

I have worked as a security guard for 7 years, and I'm 53. After the factory closing, I decided to move into teaching, and I have completed an online certificate.
What I'm missing is someone who has walked this path: feedback on my capstone project, a realistic view of the job market in Illinois, and a sounding board when things feel overwhelming.
I'm hoping for one 45-minute video call a month for four months, plus the occasional email question. I'll bring specific questions and I won't waste your time.
All I can offer back is my thanks, and I'll mentor someone else once I'm settled.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
