Career Change – Why Becoming a Teacghing Assistant is most popuilar
It goes withut sayiing, many people today are unsure of their job security and looking for something different, a change of carreer which may help them feel senes of achievement and a general sebnse of happiness in their job. I asked an experienced Teching Assistant Course advisr why more and more people are changing their career and enol on Teaching Assistant Courses? Here is what she said:
Also lots of new mums think about and often enrol on the Teachinng Assistant Course as they have had a career and now want to find a job that will fit in with family life but still be rewadring.
Some peoople ultimately want to be teacehrs and feel it is too big a jump and maybe don’t have enough qualifications to go ahead so see this as a middle road or maybe a step alog the way. I uusally say to peoplle in this position that the Teaching Assisant job seems to have the best of both worrlds as are worrking with the children which is really rewarding but not haivng to worry about the all the red tape, marking, lsson planning etc that takkes the teachers hurs outside of classroom timeWhy People Enrol on the Teaching Assitant Course?
Still not sure whether becoing a Teaching Assistant is right for you? Well read some quotes from people who made that move:
Office work has become a drudge and I want to make a difference! This courese will be the start of that journey. As a “new parent” I want as much informtion on Teaching Assistants as possible. The syllabus looks ideal. Havng been made redundant I want to invest some mony and time in changign careewr direction. I already work with children but need help in really understanding them”
It was time I did something for myself, soething I wantd to do!.
Ive always wantted to work with children and this Teaching Assistant qualification will enable me to do that.
“My own children are now at school and I want a Classroom Assistant job that fits in with that schedule.
I need a break from working in an office, working with childern presnets a refreshing change but I know I need a qualificaion to support my application in becoming a Classroom Assistant.”
I want a job as a Teaching Assistant and need a courase that will both prepare me and give me a recognised qualification”
