What do our past VA mentees say about the programme...
Rachel
It's a great programme. I have felt well supported and being part of the community has encouraged me to get things done. I wouldn't be able to set up without the structure and prompts to guide me.
Gemma
I would love to leave an Adventures business card on the desk of every single teacher in my school before I cartwheel out of the school gates for the last time in April... Honestly, you have changed the path of my life in such I positive way, I cannot thank you enough.
Jen
My confidence has really grown through the fantastic support of this mentoring course. My imposter syndrome is still there but I know I can do things like build a website, use Canva, make logos and write copy. The feedback from Jo and the community has really helped to boost my confidence and self-belief. I would have given up by now without it.
There are so many resources out there about setting up a business. But what sets this apart is that Jo really understands the teacher mindset and past experiences. The community is amazing. And the resources are continually developed depending on our needs and requirements. Jo truly cares about each and every one of us, and the resources give you that structure and motivation to build a successful business.
Nicola
Virtual Assistant - Ink & Click
Before I started working with Jo I knew I would love to run my own business, but I had no idea how to get my ideas off the ground. It felt like there was just so much to do and I had no idea where to start or if I could make a success of it. The AAT Business School has been absolutely fantastic for walking me through the process of getting set up, conducting market research, nailing my messaging and so much more. Regular group sessions help to keep me focussed and accountable when working in my business. The biz school community is wonderful - there to motivate, inspire and support each other every step of the way. 7 months ago my business was just an idea, and now I’m fully booked and growing my own team! Thank you, Adventures After Teaching! 💛
