Has anyone done an On-Line......

Teaching assistant course? And if so what one did you do, and how does it work, i.e. Do you need to spend time in a class room? And what else does it involve? Thank you.

You need to commit to at least 2 hours a week voluntarily on a placement in a school in order to give practical examples in your portfolio. It also needs to enable you to get a variety of experience , so not just helping with reading or a particular lesson and someone from the school should be nominated to supervise your placement.

Thank you. I will contact one of my local schools on Monday. Hopefully in the run up to Christmas they may need more help both in the classroom and maybe help with nativity etc.
