With an uncompleted PhD in Applied Linguistics you could get a job at a Mexican university. If you were able to get a full time one, you could easily afford a good school for your kids, but it will take luck to get a full time one. But you could look into it. Once you had finished the PhD, if you had a position at a public Mexican university, you could supplement your income through a government grant program to attract PhDs to said universities. It involves a certain number of publications a year to keep the grant, but it's a doable number.
The first step would be targeting schools with an applied linguistics department.

Here is a start:

Move to Singapore.

Enroll your children at government schools. They are virtually free for foreigners, have some of the world's best education, and foreign children can enroll at a fraction of the cost of an international school.

Perfect solution.

Plenty of teaching work here for you.

If you are finding your studies a trial, how will it feel when you are educating your children at home and presumably teaching some English to keep the wolf from the door?
