I am currently a TA at my DD's school. I like it but I'm not sure it's a long term career for me, although I love working with children.
Recently I have been considering maybe retraining as a speech and language therapist. My degree was in languages, and I have some experience of working with EAL students.
I wouldn't be able to afford it until my youngest is in school anyway- in 2 years time. By then I'd be 35, then I believe the training ia 2 years so I would be 37 starting a new career!
Does anyone have experience of this? Would I get onto a course with my degree? And what is the job market like? Or am I just too old to retrain??
