I am currently teaching internationally and would like to change careers. The job has been good, but I would like to try something else. Part of my problem is I don't know what a person trained as a teacher can do. I have lived internationally in the Middle East for the past six years. Is that an aspect that an employer might find attractive? I do not know where to start. I am welling to try almost anything and I don't mind staying in the Middle East. Is there anyone that can give me advise on where to start as I look to change careers? Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes Razz Shocked

If you don't mind remaining in the Middle East, then try to find a job there. As a former teacher...how many years of experience? Also, what is your background? There's always the option of transferrable skills and this means you can work in a lot more places on a lot more positions. It's just how you manage to build a targeted resume.
