I am currently working as a Art /Textile technology teacher but i feel its time for change, any suggestions?

Question

I guess routine, paperwork and rude and at times aggressive kids ( not all of them teaching has also been rewarding) have taken their toil on me when i have to dread going to work each day, i realised i'd rather quit before i resent what i do, i am a very creative person, in my spare time i make wedding dresses, and accessories, anything that could be sewn, and a good bussiness head, at some point while still teaching i was contracted to make bidesmaids dresses, waistcoats for a wedding shop, i have attented business seminars, done fashion shows, run workshops, taught both secondary school and further education, have taught for 9 yrs, and the passion to do more creative things, and still make a decent living, any suggestions in the line of Art, fashion, or even Tv work, i need motivation to go to work tommorrow !!!

Answer 1

You sound like me. I too am very creative and get bored very easiliy. I think people who are creative and ambitious constantly need fresh challenges and variety, and get frustrated when circumstances outside their control start shaping their careers. Im looking to change careers, but im impatient and thinking about it drives me nuts cus i havent found what is i want to do with my life!! :? It seems to me you should be starting your own business, and that you'd enjoy being your own boss. If you enjoy making clothes in your spare time, and receiving complements for your creations, then thats what you should do. Let people enjoy your work because it will inspire you on to greater things. Best of luck to you :)

Answer 2

With your experience teaching people, have you ever considered a career in network marketing? No experience is neccessary, but it helps if you can show other people well what you do. If you'd like a free DVD that explains the UK business I've been in since December 2003, just email me. No obligation, no catch, no con.
