Please see the amendments I made to your post with regard to capitalisation, spacing and the indefinite article.

1. As well as being a pilot, I am a paraglider and a tourist guide.
2. I'm an English teacher.

We don't really use the phrase "tourist guide" but if we did, it would mean something different.

A tour guide is the person in charge of a tour (a trip or journey somewhere).
A tourist guide would help tourists but there might not be any travel involved. They might simply direct people to tourist sights in a particular town, for example.

According to the context, shouldn't the word be "sites?"
