how would I state my studies on a resume?

You could complete online courses and list the courses you have done on your resume. Would that work for you?

But what if the studies were not from an actual school? What if you studied from books on your own, YouTube, etc.?

Am not sure what i would study though, but it might a science course.

What type of science?

You could say you were "self taught in" whatever subject it is. You could say you're an autodidact (fancy word for the same thing).

It depends on the subject. What are you considering studying? You could talk about your knowledge and what you have achieved or done in the area, without reference to particular qualifications.

I just cannot make up my mind yet and just cannot afford the student loans. I doubt if I would be able to get a grant or scholarship. Thus, self-study. I already have an education in Political Science and in Fitness and Nutrition. Such education has gotten myself nowhere.

Fitness and Nutrition are practical and valuable skills. Have you conisdered how you could use that skill and knowledge?

Thank you for asking @Fergal. I was always into exercise and taking care of myself. I thought that I could maybe become an fitness instructor. I graduated with highest honors. Then reality hit. Where would I hold classes? How would I get students? Would I teach for free?

A lot of them are employed by gyms, but there are freelance fitness instructors. I've seen them advertise for clients on bulletin boards at the library and university, and I assume they must also advertise online and must get a lot of their business through word of mouth. They hold classes in parks (which is free, though there's a risk someone else might be using the part of the park you want) and community halls. You have to be SUPER fit to do that though.

You need insurance too in case someone gets injured. It's something I've looked into a little (as it applies in Australia) because I want to run circus classes for young children (I already have police checks etc. for working with kids). The insurance/money side of things seems like a headache to set up so I have put the idea to one side for now.

Have you ever gone to a career counsellor? You can still do that as an adult, though I'm not sure what's available where you are.

If I could head back to school, I’d totally dive into something like environmental science or renewable energy! I mean, who wouldn’t want to be part of the solution for our planet, Plus, I’d love to learn more about cool tech and sustainable practices.

Being that I have no transportation, a desk job is more my thing these days. I am not lazy, just is obvious that I cannot get anywhere.

There are people who give nutrition advice and personal training to their clients online, they don't actually meet their clients in person. Perhaps that is something that could work for you Spontaneo.

That does make sense. However, I do not want a blog or website. May I ask what other way I could online?

I wasn't referring to people with blogs or websites, but people who coach their clients online using video call apps such as Zoom or Microsoft Teams. They schedule online video calls with their clients and coach them during those calls.

Now that makes sense! I need to accomplish 2 things first though.

1. Finish my dental work for good appearance.
2. Learn how to Zoom.

Finally, how would I get clients to have consultations?

Thank you so much @Fergal!
