How To Leave Teaching But Still Utilise The Skills You’ve Developed

Updated 4th February, 2025

Love working in education, but had enough of the daily grind on the front line of teaching?

Maybe you’ve learnt a great deal as a teacher, but feel it’s time to move on and use those hard-earned skills elsewhere?

A Choice Home Tutoring (CHT) franchise could be exactly the opportunity you’re looking for.

By running your own tutoring business, you can certainly keep your hand in with teaching if you want to, but it’s entirely up to you. You’ll still very much be playing a part in making a difference in young people’s lives through education, but how hands-on you are is your choice. The important thing is that you can use all your gained experience to help run your own successful business.

As a CHT franchisee, you can carry out some of the tutoring yourself if you’d like to, but your main role will be running your business. This means you can take a more hands-off role if it better suits you – particularly as your business grows.

The Best Part

You already have many of the skills you need!

If you’ve only just started considering a new career, you might be amazed just how many transferable skills you have. If you can handle a classroom full of children, you’re well ahead of the curve when it comes to managing people in business!

But that’s not all, of course; teachers like you already have all the skills needed to excel in business: problem solving, time management, excellent communication and people skills, you name it! With the right business model behind you, you can combine all of this into something new and rewarding, both professionally and personally.

Going It Alone Instead Of Joining A Franchise

You can of course opt to set up your business alone but this can be a daunting prospect for many, whereas joining a franchise such as CHT brings the security, reassurance and continual support from experienced business owners who have ‘been there and done it’. 

The beauty of being a franchisee is that you’re in business ‘for’ yourself but not ‘by’ yourself. However, whether you’re thinking of CHT or not, the brand must right for you i.e. its values must align to your own! So do your research and try to get a good feel for the franchisor – as well as the current franchisees – as your working relationship with them may last many years.
