Well, I consider myself very lucky to say that I already have the job I wanted. Since I finished my studies I had the opportunity to work in different places and that is something positive about being a teacher; Having the possibility to work with students, know about their realities and be part of their learning process. Maybe in the future I'd like to have an administrative job but always related to English, however I don't really like indoor jobs I prefer moving from one place to another and to interact with more people than just the same group every single day. In this sense if I could mix all those elements teaching english, working with different groups of people in an outdoor context it'd be great!

I feel the same about traveling. I'd love to go abroad as part of my job specially if that gives me the possibility to practice English in a real context with native speakers.
About the salary I'd love to have more economic stability and of course having a job that  would allow me to keep studying and accomplishing my goals.
In the future I'd like to keep studying because I think it's important improving as teacher in many senses and there is always something new to be learned.
