Career shift to software from teaching?


Question:
i'm in my Mid20s. I have been in teaching for 5years.Is it possible to enter software from teaching field? what should i learn to enter immiedately, Testing/JAVA/Mainframe etc?

Answer:
I think you need to rephrase your question.
What do you mean by "enter software"?
How can you use your teaching to relate to the field you are referring to?

Do you want to be a computer programmer? (what type of programming projects interest you)
or perhaps a software q&a tester? (limited field)
Unfortunately you probably should learn c,c++, visual C, Visual Basic. Java as an extra.
it really depends on what you want to do. There are a number of other languages which you may need depending on what you want to do.

Download something like MySQL and learn the basics of a sql database system. If you don't have software now you can get free software for learning on from borland.com. Personally i love delphi (an oop pascal). But they have c, java, and others.

Why don't you check out your local community college and see what they offer. It's a good start. Find out if you really enjoy that type of work. Perhaps join an open-source project and work on it for some quick experience and knowledge.
