Career transition

I was laid off in May of this year. I was an executive assistant. I no longer interested in this role. I have been an ESL and Computer Basics instructors part-time at a community college.

Networking and applying for work on job platforms has been mentally exhausting. What tips and tools to combine my passion for instruction and technology to adults that pays well?

Have you checked with the community college to see if they can convert you to full-time or provide a reference? They may even have some job leads if they cannot accommodate moving you to a permanent employee.

I’m wondering if you can look into teaching online courses? Coursera, Udemy, etc.

Learn a new skill so you can teach that. See what IT training jobs are in demand and start there.
