what kind of a job category should i look for apart from teaching?

Question

I have done my doctorate in English but i have never taught for a long term because of family problems. Now i want to start afresh. I am a science graduate, post graduate in English. I have also done a diploma in web-designing. I am a basic computer literate. Please let me know how to go about. I have lost the confidence to face an interview and make an impression.

Answer 1

Let me tell you about my job, as it may trigger some ideas for you. I am a corporate trainer, which is similar to teaching, but for adults.

My company sends me to customer sites where I run sessions on industry topics, team building, soft skills, or management issues. I also teach classes for state continuing education credits in many states. This is done as a perk for customers. The service provided is well respected within the company and the industry.

Prior to the visit, I work with the customer to develop a program suitable for their needs. There is a team of seven in my company that do this, so we have lots of collaboration.

I've gotten to travel the country, meet lots of people, and seen just about every state and several foreign countries. And the job pays three to four times a teacher's salary, plus the travel perks.

In addition to using teaching skills, I do lots of research, program development, and coaching. Our program delivery is varied; live classroom based, live online, computer-based self-guided, and sometimes, totally written text.

It is an ideal position for a sharp teacher who doesn't want the day-to-day of teaching kids in a school. Many industries employ internal trainers, and some employ external trainers. My experience is that about half of corporate trainers come from other positions within the organization and others are educators who learn the specific industry after hire.

With your background, there may be opportunities with drug companies, hospital equipment supply companies, or janitorial supply companies. (Teaching large factories and businesses how to properly use otherwise dangerous chemical cleaners has got to be a big business.) On the computer side, there are software companies, hardware companies, and any business that wants its customers to use proprietory software.

Let me suggest you check out the ASTD web site for more information about corporate training opportunities.

Good luck!

It's okay. Sometimes, we start late but that does not mean that we are 'outdated'. Brush up your skills and practice interviews like any fresher would, including rehearsing in front of the mirror. You can also look at other oprions like working as translator, interpreter, content writer, feature writer for various newspapers and magazines, editor and proofreader. Explore these options too.

Answer 3

i notice that you have not mentioned your age and also your present line-of-calling. ok., if the teaching line doesn't suite you, then obviously you have to look for other line of work. taking in to consideration what you have told about facing interviews etc. , i strongly wish you to go for marketting-sector -especially life-insurance sector combined with Mutual-fund agency. you have to undergo training and exams in these fields but no interviews are
required.
i know that i have partially answered you as i do not have more details of you such as your age, your marital status and also your present line of calling.
bye,
