I can empathise with what you're up against - as MY wife had taught at a Government High School for twenty-two years back home in the Phils ... yet her BSc in Agricultural Sciences counts for very little if she were to try and enter the teaching profession here in Scotland.

Mind you, I'm not so sure that she would WANT to resume her career ... preferring instead, to work as a Horticulturist. But she's in a "no-win" situation, really ... being considered under-qualified for the type of job she's accustomed to, and over-qualified for others. And I expect you find yourself in the same predicament!

... Have you considered doing voluntary work? Sometimes this can eventually lead to either full or part-time remunerative employment - and very often brings out latent skills that people never previously knew they HAD!! If, of course, you've already DECIDED you need to earn a wage in order to supplement your husband's income - then how about approaching one or other of the many supermarket chains/fashion stores/photography studios on the basis of your customer services/photographic experience. In other words, "shop around". Good Luck!
