[quote=Anonymous]I sympathize. But 40 is awfully late to still think it's ok to quit a job without another lined up. You have to play it safe when you're a single mom. Can you see if there's a career coach who will do pro bono work and talk with you about next steps? I have worked with career counselors before and I believe they have to do so many hours of free work to maintain their certifications (or something like that)? Maybe post on Craigslist or your neighborhood listserv and ask if anyone is/knows of a career counselor you could talk with who would be willing to waive the fee given your circumstances. Since you have teaching experience, can you apply to Kaplan or Princeton Review to be a test prep teacher? They pay decently well (like $20/hr). Or offer 1-on-1 tutoring (advertise on craigslist, etc). Lots of places like Inlingua or LADO need English teachers for ESL students. Use your teaching background to help find a stopgap job![/quote]
