Career in Teaching Sector
One can say that after our parents, the most memorable and natural guides to us were our teachers in school. The attitude we often had against a particular subject as students often depended upon the teacher teaching it and the way they taught the subject. One can say that students make the school but the teachers make the students. This is exactly why teachers are so important — especially good teachers.
The goal of a teacher is not only to make students score high in exams but rather generate curiosity and act as a guide in a student’s life. It is not an easy job and requires a lot of skills, hard work, and most of all, patience.
In this article, we will be looking at what skills, courses, and exams you need to prepare to start your career in teaching. This article is based on guidance provided by Ms. Deepali Seth in a live session on “Career in Teaching Sector” conducted by the Shashi Dream Foundation, under their initiative to provide career advice to underprivileged children.
