To cut a long story short, I went into my local secondary to observe some lessons with a view to doing a PGCE - by the end of the day I was offered a very part time teaching post in my degree subject.
The school is very supportive - they've factored in mentoring time, the head is a big fan of the GTP, so I'm hopeful that this can be a way forward for me. I'll be teaching an AS class this year, and hopefully taking them onto A2.
My subject knowledge is rusty, but I can polish it up. I have a background as a trainer (as well as training people in how to become trainers) but I've not done that much in the last couple of years.
Is there any books, tips, anything that people can recommend on how to actually teach?
It's probably absolute madness, but I would have kicked myself if I'd turned it down, plus the school were totally stuck on how to deliver the course next year. And 30 pupils have signed up!
Would really appreciate some advice from MN teachers. Thanks!
