If you’re that qualified you should look at immigration as an option. Where I live, the base salary is $78k for a bachelor degree qualified teacher and goes up to $140k if you take on head of department roles. If you don’t it caps out at a few grand less. We’re currently in a teacher shortage too.
Be warned though, this is in Australia so the cost of living does suck a bit. You still are probably not affording buying a house on this.
If I get a PhD (which I have to pay for) and work for twenty years in my job, my salary caps out at ~60k.
What field? That’s wild to me, and horribly unjust.
Teaching.
I’m sorry to hear that, education is absolutely criminally undervalued by society.
And boy oh boy, does it show. :(
