Hi all, I’ve been teaching for the last four years, and with entering the field right as COVID hit, I feel like I saw the worst in the US school systems come out. I had plenty of veteran teachers quite literally tell me to “run while you still can”.
And after these four years I feel pretty inadequately compensated for my work and effort, especially as responsibilities are only piling up. Because of this I’m not looking to teach another year, and want to explore other options, and perhaps even do additional schooling in 2024.
As someone who is good with computers and technology, I was offered an ITRT spot in my last school, and I would’ve taken it had it been a pay decrease from teaching. I’ve explored some software trainer positions, but even those resembled teaching too much for me to want to commit to that.
All in all, I’d love to try and work in tech one way or another. Nothing has really stood out to me, which is why I’m on here looking for recommendations. But I’m sure I’d be interested in IT, software development/engineering, data analysis, or really anything tech focused under the sun that will make me feel well compensated for my time and energy, while not needing to take home a physical or mental workload. I’m not looking for “fuck you money”, just something that will enable me to live comfortably without stressing too much about work on a day to day basis.
Any and all recommendations are welcome. I am willing to head back to a more formal schooling, or even do any “tech boot camps” that could give me valuable skills I could use in the tech world. Feel free to be as specific and detailed, or as general as you want! Thanks everyone I appreciate you all!!
