Hey,
Teaching English can be cool if you stick with it. I didn't like it in the beginning either, to be honest. Then it kinda grew on me.
Welcome!

Welcome. What are the new lines of work you are looking for (an obvious question that seems to have been missed so far)?

Hey there,
Welcome to Istanbul to start. Where are you from in the States? I am from Pittsburgh and just moved here in January. I love it here in Istanbul as well. Good luck in your career search. Let me know if I can be of any help to you!

Hi Farah, I have absolutely nothing to say, and no questions to ask. Except for one thing, welcome to the forum!

Hey Farah,
Welcome! Just curious why you picked Istanbul out of all the destinations in the world?

Do you have a new line of work preference? Are you tech-oriented - How about proof-reading English manuals... or even better writing them. Or closer to teaching: training classes.
