INTRODUCTION TO TEACHING

Thursday 16th April 2020, 09:00 - 13:00 (with a Networking Lunch provided from 12:30)

This session is aimed at those interested in exploring a career in Teaching or Training.

This FREE taster session will provide you with useful insights into Higher Level training opportunities in this subject area and how developing these skills could benefit your career.

Introduction to Teaching

This session will provide a practical introduction to learning, teaching and assessment. It will encourage you to consider your own experiences as a learner to explore the defining characteristics of a good teacher. The session will focus on the communication and planning skills required to deliver a lesson and check that learning has taken place. The tutor will also provide an overview of pathways into teaching.

Our free tasters are standalone, non-accredited sessions that will allow you to find out what studying these subjects at a Higher Level would entail and where gaining these qualifications could take you. Completion of a taster could also result in financial support towards a qualification at Level 3 or above.

‘The tutor gave a very good introduction to teaching - she made it interactive, fun and encouraging. Thanks very much!’

This taster session is fully funded by the European Social Fund (ESF) as part of the ESF Widening Participation through Skills Project.
