I have a BA in English, but I don't want to teach. I've tried it, and it's not for me. But it seems this is the only way to immigrate. If I were to get my masters, is there anything I could focus on that would give me more job opportunities to live/work abroad? I'm open to living most places provided I can live there safely as a transgender man. With the changing laws towards trans people, the high cost of health care and living, etc, I feel less and less safe and welcome here in the US every day. I know every place has their own problems, but I'm just hoping to see what else is an option for me.
Maybe you could get masters in something else? Pick a country then see what career opportunities are available.
Also, learn languages. It's easier to get a job if you speak their language.
Other than that - you will be safe.
I had a part-time job with a trading company in the snail-mail days, rewriting their outgoing business letters in goood English. Didn't pay much, but it was fun, sociable, and my boss thought it was good for business. But I suppose that is just a sub-set of "teaching English".
Software engineer, structural engineer, pharmacologist, any sort of physician ( in most countries, they don't need any more in Uruguay), top of the field financial advisor or investor, Lots of things your degree doesn't really qualify you for.
You could open an import export business or do some sort of food processing or if labor is cheap some sort of clothing factory. Figure out how to a make a living off of tourism.
