I actually found your video because of your comment on another video. Thank you for this. I am trying so hard to get out of the classroom and into a career that I will be more respected in for my skills.
Thank you for your comment. I am so glad you were able to find me here. Feel free to schedule a call with me on byeteaching.com if you have any questions or need help! And rmr NEVER give up!!
I love that for you! It sounds to me that you want a complete break from "Teaching" a I made a vide on the role of a Project Manager - thought you might benefit from it. th-cam.com/video/3AYxzQ_SOZs/w-d-xo.htmlsi=gUjm0ns-AqWR4V_o
She and I both taught. She liked to do a type of stitchery. I knew nothing about that. She had devised a very simple item, and wanted to try to sell it. "Ok, I will look for places for you to sell it." Of all the venues that I found, the most interesting was a regional stitchery show. We devised a display panel, signed up for the show. Myself and another guy loaded our truck and took the display a couple of states north. We had no idea what we were doing. We set up her display and waited. When the show opened, we were swamped. I called her that evening, and she wanted to know if we had sold anything at all. I told her we wrote orders all day long. She had sold over 2,000 items. Thus began a business which became national. She developed a cut and sew business. She designed patterns, sold books, and then moved into the gift market. What a ride. Happily, I did her computer work and shipping. We were married for 60 years, and she worked up to about two weeks before the cancer took her.
Here in Germany, 99 percent of HR people have strong prejudices against teachers and former teachers - like me. So I removed the years I worked as a teacher from my CV... I studied math, and as long as I used my truthful CV, nobody believed that I could count to more than three. With the embellished CV, it was suddenly no problem anymore getting an excellent job.
@@t.terrell7037 The HR managers didn't ask about gaps. But I noticed several times that my teaching experience was considered an obstacle to being hired. That's why I embellished my CV.
I was a Recruiter / Employee Relations Processor and HR Assistant after teaching for 6 years. Now I am back to teaching for 6 years but might change career after a few years from now. School Counselor is possible after taking a Masters in Guidance and Counseling
You don't need a masters degree to switch careers or to even make 6 figure salary. It helps though sometimes! And, you don't have to reveal that you have a masters degree in a certain field if you don't want to share. Your counseling and guidance experience is invaluable though and I can see it translating back easily into HR roles or Change Management roles.
Business Analyst caught my attention. Yet that seems like a very general title. How does one go about learning more about the requirements and pursuing opportunities?
I am struggling. Been teaching for 8 years now and no jobs I’ve applied for have been interested other than teaching jobs. I need to make more money. Gheesh 😢this makes me so sad . I neeed a change
Hi. I'm a fresh graduate in TESL, but taking the course was not by my own choice. Right now I'm planning to prepare myself to get out of teaching after finishing my contract, let's say in 3 years. So here's my question: Is it risky if I were to part time learning during my teaching career taking Master’s Degree of other field unrelated to Education? I just can't see myself in teaching; I am more to working individually and flexible with a small team. Also, I am more to office works about projects.
I completely understand where you're coming from. It's great that you're already planning ahead for a transition out of teaching! To answer your question, no, it's not necessarily risky, especially since you'll be building skills in a new area. If you know teaching isn’t your long-term path, this is a good time to explore options that align with your interests, like working independently or in project-based office roles. Just make sure to balance your teaching responsibilities with your studies to avoid burnout. Consider looking into degrees or certifications in fields like project management, business, or something tech-related-areas where you can work independently or with small teams and focus on projects. I offer these as well, if interested! :)
All seem to be good alternatives. This has given me an opportunity to put these titles in Indeed. Are there certain companies you would suggest we target?
I don't want to leave teaching; I'm very good at it and still enjoy it after 20 years. I would like to add curriculum/instructional designer...are there opportunities for contractual work here? Can this be done only remotely? How do I add this component?
As soon as I am told to watch a video until the end I start watching another video. Make the video interesting in the first place and you won't need to ask people to watch until the end. They will just do it.
Honestly, the younger you are, the better because you probably won't be demanding a $150,000 salary! You can start a new career anywhere and start with an entry level position!

Which of these appealed the most to you?
Onboarding specialist. Thanks for this helpful video!

That’s terrible
@@sylph99 true!
this is sadly true!
So if you taught for a while did they ask about gaps in your resume since you removed the teaching experience? Thanks

Wow! Glad I found you! This is a valuable channel ❤
Thank you so much!
Many teachers need this information.
Thank you for your comment and thank you in advance for sharing this with your teacher friends! :)

This seems to be more of a list of modern jobs than specific positions that teachers are uniquely qualified for. Thanks for the effort though.
Thank you for calling me clueless.

Thanks for calling someone a key board warrior since you know your kind, not one of them. anonymous keyboard warrior.
Currently iam working as faculty, can i transition into product manager roles is this feasible
With the right training, you certainly can!
What’s with the pen?
I don't know - it got your attention right?
What if you’re a first year teacher? Are you still able to transition out of the classroom with little experience in the classroom?
Honestly, the younger you are, the better because you probably won't be demanding a $150,000 salary! You can start a new career anywhere and start with an entry level position!
Lovely video, do you mind sharing the tools or software did you use to create this video?
Yes I can - I use movavi video editor, and capcut to add captions and stock videos.
