* Substitute Teacher: These teachers fill in for absent teachers at various schools within a geographic area. While not strictly "traveling" in the sense of long journeys, they move between different schools frequently.
* Independent Contractor/Tutor: These individuals may travel to students' homes, businesses, or other locations to provide one-on-one or small-group tutoring or instruction. They might specialize in a particular subject, skill, or age group.
* Instructor for Corporate Training: These teachers travel to different companies or locations to provide training to employees, often on specific industry-relevant skills.
* Teacher at a Traveling School or Program: Some organizations operate mobile schools or educational programs that travel to underserved areas or provide instruction in unique settings (e.g., on a boat, in a national park). The teachers in these programs travel with the program itself.
* University Professor (occasionally): While not always traveling, some university professors might travel to give lectures, workshops, or conduct research at different institutions.
In short, the term encompasses anyone who makes a living teaching and travels regularly as part of their job, regardless of the specific setting or clientele.
