Something to consider is teaching outside of Indiana. The State of Indiana has a compact agreement with the states listed here (link to http://www.education.purdue.edu/oppl/home/licensing/outstate.html ) so that an individual holding a valid Indiana license may be able to obtain a license in these other states relatively easily.
