You've had great answers~~~ what they said about selling yourself short
I think that what kind of job you're looking for matters. I got a job online because a mom I knew frm a forum about reading knew that I had gobs of phonics expertise and dashed me an email... a week later I was getting $35/hr for making up stories for a phonics series. (Paid to be cute, even!)
So... can you put your skills into words?
I found lots of good ideas and encouragement from _What Color Is Your Parachute_.
