Teaching/coaching ? But without some notable achievements like past IOI,ICPC etc I don't think many people would wanna take coaching.

PS: I really believe that someone who's master or above will easily be able to learn computer science stuff very fast. So , knowledge of computer science is not a problem.

I am a University drop out. I got my job completely based on competitive programming. I have a much lower rating. There are many companies, who don't care about anything else.
