Old saying 'Those that can do, those who can't teach'.

There are many jobs we don't even think about that teachers can do in the business world. But the fact is, having a college degree opens the door to many other fields of endeavor. Employers will take a chance on someone who has a degree because of their broader range of knowledge and discipline.
Who would think that my son, MS physics, would work for 2 years for a chip manufacturer, then become a teacher?? Now, he's back in the "business world".

Plenty! One field that jumps out at me right off the bat would be a corporate trainer. But, depending on what field you are educated in, there are always additional opportunities where you might least expect it. Instead of thinking about what you majored in, think about what skills you're proficient in and go from there. There might be a whole slew of jobs that you're not even thinking about because you're only seeing a narrow portion of what you could actually do.

So far I see where no-one is thinking clearly. It depends upon what the teaches specializes in. A math teacher could well become an accountant, a kindergarten teacher would do well in a day care center, a science teacher could do well in a science lab. etc...etc...etc...

I am a teacher, I also do Real Estate. Think about it. It's quite rewarding. meeting people and the compensation is good. I would not fully depend on the Real Estate if I was not financially stable though.

any job that requires only whatever degree you have. (like law enforcement requires only this ammount of college, though not in any specific field)...A teacher would be qualified for any managing position to start out with, too...Probably clerical work, also...

I checked the yahoo search engine and there are at least 5 booklets (listing alternative careers) published on this subject, seems you have to buy them.

There were a bunch of unemployed teachers in the 1970's that became programmers! Kid you not, Cobol programmers.
