[quote=Anonymous]I was an English teacher. When we moved here in 2010 I became a communications professional bc there were limited teaching opportunities available. Honestly, I'd go back in a heartbeat if I could afford it, but I always loved teaching. But after three years I've come to terms with my new career and finding ways to enjoy it. It was hard at first because teaching experience doesn't count for much in the corporate world (at least in my experience) so even though I had ten years work experience, I had to come into my new job in a more junior position and work my way up (which I fortunately did very quickly and am now in a mid level position). What is it specifically that you don't like about teaching? I loved the independence (pre Common Core days) and creativity - I'm not getting a lot of either in my current job.[/quote]
