I am a teacher too, and train on the side. I don't burn out, but I think there are two things that keep me going:
1. I always know that a vacation from school is just around the corner
2. I don't rely on the trainer income, so when someone cancels, I feel free to use that time to reorganize, rest, or get some other work done.

It IS hard, though, especially when you depend on a pretty fickle client base as your means of income.
