Question

My passion I love teaching and I love dealing with children. I work part time in an office giving support to the legal team. I don't know if teaching part time is an easy thing to do, what I mean is it easy to find part time positions? Many thanks!

Absolutely! Part time teaching is fairly common. Depending on your speciality it'll be more or less easy to find work.

Do you have QTS

Not yet, I’m considering taking it, but I was waiting to see if I had any chances of getting a job

Well, if you really like it, I’d say go ahead with it. There’s a teacher shortage and I’d be quite surprised if there are no available jobs…

Teaching is great, but make sure first that it really is your thing. It’s vocational and if it’s not your thing it can be quite wearing. I personally love it.

Oh yes, it’s my thing, I’ve no doubts about it. Great comments from you all, thanks.

I agree, there’s a shortage of teachers but my question is why! Is it maybe because they face long hours and low pay?
