Sorry if this is in the wrong place but I was wondering if anyone could give me their opinion on how useful a Masters degree is as a teacher? Also if you have completed one what was it like difficulty wise?
I have found a MEd course I would really love to study in a subject that I have a keen interest in but aside from personal interest, I wondered if it's viewed as worth having or not particularly that important?
I have always wanted to be a teacher and I have been working as an LSA for 5 years whilst I have studied. I have a BA (hons) in education and due to personal circumstances I have decided that it would be best to do my teacher training in about 3 years time or later but don't want to not be doing anything in the meantime. The course is in Autism which is relevant to my current role and I hope to remain in special education. It also may help if I later decide on a career change such as an Autism advisory teacher role if I ever want to leave teaching.
