What You Need To Know About Becoming A Teacher

Becoming a teacher is one of the most rewarding and fulfilling jobs there are. You will be helping to shape the minds of the next generation and facing new and exciting challenges every day. However, there are a few things you should know before you get started.

What Kind Of Teacher Do You Want To Be?

Think carefully about the age group of children that you want to teach. Teaching younger kids requires a different mentality and skillset to teaching teenagers. Ask yourself if you want to specialize in a subject of interest or if you want to help children gain the fundamentals in a range of classes. Think about whether you want to work as a teacher in a school or if becoming a private tutor suits your lifestyle better.

You Need The Right Qualifications

Enroll in a teacher training course for the range of ages that you want to teach. Look for a course that you can fit around your other higher education commitments. Most high schools require you to have a bachelor’s degree in addition to a teaching license. Apply for teaching internships in your local area. Necessary qualifications and certifications will vary from state to state.

You Can Apply For Financial Support

Find out if you are eligible for financial support as a teacher. Talk to your home loan provider about mortgage options for teachers. Research nationwide teacher home loan policies to see if you would benefit. These loans include buyer grants of up to $6,000 which you will not have to repay, as well as down payment assistance and rebates on appraisal and real estate agent fees. Applying does not affect your credit score. Find out if there are non-government home loans available specifically for teachers in your area. Look for financial aid options before you commit to a teacher training course.

Be Prepared For A Job Search

Start your search for a position early. Use available resources to browse positions and salary to find the right fit for you. Be prepared to network and apply to join professional organizations to give yourself the best chance of finding a job. Contact schools in your district regularly because jobs may come up at short notice. Consider specializing in one subject because specialized teachers can be in higher demand. Experience is a big factor in hiring so be prepared to take substitute positions to boost your CV.
