Episode description

Overview

In this episode, I checked in with my friend Matt Wheeland, Senior Account Executive (he got a promotion since we last spoke!) at Formative. Matt is a former educator turned EdTech guru. Since we last spoke on Episode 5 in March 2021 (wow!), Formative has made some fantastic updates to their platform, and Matt gives us all the details. Oh and did I mention Matt has close to 20k followers on Linkedin? WOW! During the episode, Matt even turned the tables and interviewed me on my professional journey from educator to ID. It’s time to grab your headphones and tune into this amazing episode!

More About Matt - In his own words

After seven years of classroom teaching, Matt eventually found his way into ed tech. His current role enables him to help educators answer what he thinks is the most important question in education: “did my students actually learn today?”

Things I love -

1. Ohio sports 🏈

2. Reading 📖

3. My wife, my 6 yr old son, and two Australian Shepherds 🐶

Over the past 6 years, I've sold cars, service contracts, and software. But, the hardest thing I ever sold was an education to disinterested high school students-- as a teacher.
