You may know \u201chow\u201d tasks are accomplished in the kitchen, your taste receptors are likely fine-tuned, and your ability to problem-solve is never questioned, but now, it\u2019s all about different learning styles, patience, coaxing with encouragement while never faltering from your high standards, critiquing instead of criticizing, and giving the right amount of attention to each member of the class. Transitioning from operations chef to teacher is challenging and rewarding at the same time. Join CAF\u00c9 Talks Podcast for a chat with Chef Kevin McCarthy from Paul Smith\u2019s College as he reflects on his experience in doing just that.
