What wonderful news! You know, I made the same decision about 22 yrs ago. I quite the bank where our only product was turning money into more money. Went to work for a much much reduced salary doing something similar to what you will be doing, working to teach adults to read and so on. I remember one woman who came into class on a Monday and announced to the whole room that for the first time, she had been able to read aloud her part in Sunday School the day before. You can't get that kind of feeling from banking!
Best wishes for many many years of rewarding and challenging work!
