I have a BS in Business Administration, and I'm going for an Associate of Applied Science degree in Technical Communications.
I plan to become a grant writer. I wish I would have gone into teaching, but that's OK. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

I did a BSC in Manufacturing and then went to night school for accoutnacy. Since then in the UK I was able to put all that hard work to good use working as a dishwasher ^^.

A B.A. in English Lit., and a Masters in Library Science.
Approx. five years ago, I also acquired a CELTA certificate; Although I'm not teaching English, I certainly don't regret having taken the course. - It was hard work, but highly interesting and enjoyable. - What I learned during the CELTA course has also helped me in my French language-learning.

My bachelor's degree was for music education. I taught for a few years. And then...
I got a master's degree in Library Science. Now I am a librarian, and I enjoy that very much. My fancy letters, for those who care are: BSE (Bachelor of Science in Education) and MLS (Master of Library Science) 1 person has voted this message useful | |

M.A. Hons Russian and German from Glasgow University (you get an M.A. as your first degree from the four ancient Scottish universities, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Aberdeen, and St. Andrews), and then M.A. Advanced Japanese from Sheffield University, which I did by distance learning while living in Japan. I'm now a full-time Japanese-English translator and will remain so until (A) machine translation makes me redundant, (B) I win the Euromillions, or (C) someone pays me huge sums of money to translate Georgian short stories and novels into English.
