[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I did a career switcher program and am going to start teaching in a few weeks. I did a lot of substituting and I feel good about my decision, but teaching sucks right now so I wouldn't be surprised if I don't last long. When I want another job, at least I won't have the resume gap to contend with. Also, I am doing math so between that and having a teaching license, I'll be valuable as a tutor.

I know some teachers who gained some tech skills while teaching and taught instructional design and are now doing UX design and things like that. [/quote]

Oh, another thing I've seen people do that is much less intense than teaching is being an instructional assistant. I considered that for a while because all the ones I interacted with love their jobs. They found it really rewarding and the ones who had to quit because it didn't pay enough were bummed about it. In Virginia it's not difficult to become one (I think you just need a college degree and to take a test and for you the test will be easy). [/quote]
