What do English/Theater teachers become after leaving the classroom?
I havent figured out what I want to do. But, I am sure of what I dont want.
I dont want to work for a publisher. I'll never actually become the publisher and I cant edit. And, I'm not going to pretend to be a professional writer whose looking for an in.
I dont want to work for a testing company or a test prep company. I hate making, giving and grading tests now. Why would I base my career around them?
I dont want to work for an after school youth theater company. For a little while, I need to get away from kids; not deal with them in a less structured environment than the class room.
I dont want to work for a nonprofit. Going down in pay is not what I have in mind.
I dont want to be a grant writer. I dont know how, I dont want to pretend to know how and I dont really want that responsibility for somebody else's brainchild.
I dont want to work for the regional offices of the Department of Education.
I dont want to work for a private school.
I dont want to work for a charter school.
I dont want to work for a college/university.
I didnt want to teach anybody anything.
Realistically though, what else am I trained to do?
