Of course you can't move back in time and shouldn't. You could have found the job you love and retrained as a teacher, but it might not have turned out that way....

But why not try to be that person now, at 39? Age is just a number. Start saving, start training. You already have a job you love in a field relevant to your quest to become a teacher. I'd say at least one thrid of the student teachers who pass through our school are not typical student age.
