What field? That's wild to me, and horribly unjust.

I'm sorry to hear that, education is absolutely criminally undervalued by society.

If you're that qualified you should look at immigration as an option. Where I live, the base salary is $78k for a bachelor degree qualified teacher and goes up to $140k if you take on head of department roles. If you don't it caps out at a few grand less. We're currently in a teacher shortage too.

Be warned though, this is in Australia so the cost of living does suck a bit. You still are probably not affording buying a house on this.
