(A) Broad in Education with Tiffany Smith Flourish In The Foreign

Meet Tiffany

Hey everybody! I'm Tiffany Lachelle Smith, host and producer of (A)Broad in Education, a podcast on a mission to (dis)cover routes (ro͞ots) through conscious conversations about EDpats. EDpats is a term that I created to describe expatriates working in education outside of their home countries. With over a decade of domestic and international teaching experiences, I had the opportunity to teach in Casablanca, Morocco, and Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates (UAE). Currently, I'm a fifth-year doctoral candidate in the department of Organizational Leadership, Policy, and Development at the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities. With my dissertation study focusing on teacher attrition through African American educators who left the US PK-12 system for teaching opportunities in the UAE, much of my work focuses on identifying, addressing, and providing solutions for teacher retention and restoration.
