If you're interested in teaching, but aren't sure what kind, you could consider ESL (English as a second language). You don't need to be bilingual -- in fact, it helps if you're a native English speaker. And you can choose what age range you're most comfortable with (young children, school-aged people, or adults), plus where/how you'd like to work (fully remote, hybrid programs, international work, in schools, after-school programs, etc.).
ESL teachers get to be creative (you design games and activities to help your students learn). And the services they offer allow people to do things they couldn't otherwise do. It's a really neat field.
There's even room for career growth, if you get bored in the future and want to change it up -- you could get further certification as a speech and language pathologist ("SLP") and do accent reduction, articulation, anything you want.

Following this thread as I’ve been interested as well/wondered what people found success with!!
I can tell you personally that my friend and coworker completed school and earned a communications degree last year!! Part of her schooling required an internship in another state and she was able to transfer to a starbucks in that state during her time to fulfill the requirements, which was nice!
