I am an ex-academic. I quit my teaching job at university for many, many reasons. By a lucky strike I found myself teaching philosophy solo online. All thanks to twitter. I have been doing this since June 2020. It's been my primary source of income so far. It is my 'dream job' insofar as I love teaching philosophy. It isn't, however, an ideal situation. This is because at any point in time registrations for my synchronous courses might dry up. So I have been trying to diversify my income streams too. But it's quite difficult to do so when I was a rusty academic for 7 years. The past two years were a learning experience on all fronts. I was not sure I could actually contribute to hacker news, newbie here. So still learning the ropes, and it seems that it is not limited to tech jobs, posts, or news. Where do I head from here? I wish I knew. The ride has been interesting though. The only reason I'm responding is because of your nickname. So, curious to hear back! Thanks!
