For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.What about the TEFL course (teaching english as a foreign language). I think you can do it as a correspondence course or at night school. This way you could hang on to you current job to pay the bills, then once qualified this would give you the opportunity to travel, meet people (adult and kids) and get some experience teaching too.
nannon, mrwarpig did it as a night class but that was quite a few years ago so things may have changed but I do recall checking it out on the internet a couple of years ago as I was interested myself and am sure that there was a correspondence option as well. Mr warpig taught in Syria and France and I have two friends who are currently teaching, one in China and one in Saudi and financially they seem to be doing ok. Is there anyway you could raise the money or do you have any kindly benefactors (parents or siblings) who would be willing to help you out in the meantime?
You dont say what changes have happened to prompt your new life plan but in my experience everyone is different, some people need a new plan to focus on and aim toward while others go off half-cocked at the first opportunity (me) and worry about it later.
Best of luck whatever you decide.

Hi nannon - my list of requirements for job satisfaction are very similar to yours. For many years I worked for a training company specialising in delivering NVQ's in the workplace. It involved interviewing kids, finding work placements for them, mentoring them, assessing them for NVQ and training in classroom environment. You can qualify for an adult trainers award on a partime basis at college usually paid for by your employer. I absolutely loved it, no 2 days were the same, the kids were great, I wasn't office based.
