Episode 1 of The Long Division: on the eve of becoming a newly qualified maths teacher, I trace my path from studying chemical engineering to roles in sustainability and sales, and the Saturday tutoring sessions that ultimately led me to the classroom.

I share the quiet nervousness before the first day, the moments that confirmed teaching was the right path, and the promise to post weekly about the messy, rewarding reality of life at the front of a classroom.

Join Joshua King Prah, a London-based math teacher and soon-to-be ECT, as he shares candid, weekly solo episodes about the winding, messy journey into the classroom—from careers in engineering and consulting to chaotic Saturday classes and the everyday highs and lows of teaching.

Honest, practical and unfiltered, this podcast is for teachers, trainees, and anyone who took the long route to find their calling. New episodes every week.
