[quote=Anonymous]I taught for a few years, then went on to become a paralegal and then went to law school. Years later, the skills I learned from teaching that I always highlight are organization, being adaptable, and public speaking. These skills are sought after in any workplace environment. You may want to talk with a recruiter. The key is focusing on the job skills. Don't think about the fact that you were a teacher. Think about how you presented on numerous different subjects, how you had to adapt to your audience, how you had to think on your feet and change courses as needed, how you had to maintain structure and organization throughout the day, how you had to plan ahead, etc. These are definitely marketable skills.[/quote]
