Hi everyone. I've been a teacher for the past 10 years and im honestly done. Finished. I feel like my brain is fried, I have more than 500 students every year and the money is barely enough to survive and feed my family. I cannot save money, I barely have enough to fix my car when it breaks, I dont even think about owning a home in the future, and I feel like the effort I make and the things I go through every day at school are just not worth the money I get payed. But I also dont know what to do, I feel like I have no other way, no other skills, I have no other career. Im not from the USA, but I have a high level of english (not really visible here since im writing this with a mix of anger and frustration). Im not asking for much really, I just want a decent job and im willing to do whatever it is necessary, im just completely out of ideas and burned out. Any help will be more than welcome, because I really cant see the way out

Well, what do you teach? I think that’s a pretty important prerequisite for giving advice here and any other experience, education that you might have.
History and geography, I've also taught both subjects in english
You could look into corporate communications or other writing-intensive fields. Look into public relations, event coordinator stuff … uses your writing and organizational skillset. Also, many hiring/staffing jobs just want the recruiter to had a degree, regardless of major.
