More and more I've been considering something like this. I don't know where I would go, but I'm tired of being tied down to a district that doesn't appreciate me and dealing with parents who find every reason to fault me as much as possible. Would you ever consider doing something like this for a while instead of working in a school?

I don't teach English, but I'd love to teach abroad. I want to do it before I have kids, but my wife loves her school and isn't trying to leave any time soon.

Ok, I’m gonna say this. Schools should open. Now hear me out. My wife is a family doctor, she is working insane hours, she is treating covid patients, and there is a lot of days when she has to stay at the hospital without coming home. My neighbour works in a local grocery store, so he has been at work since the Day 1 of lockdown. So if you need medical help, or want to eat, it’s ok for those people to be at work, but their kids have to stay home? Cont’d >>

The other I’ve known less longer, but we seem more compatible. Advice??
