    What sort of help are you talking about?

    If the course is difficult, it's difficult for a reason. People who successfully complete it will be dealing with small children. Should it be an easy qualification to get?

    Just on sharing notes or ideas where to get info and on new activities.

    Yes the course should be difficult but when you have so much info giving to you sometimes a sentence can totally mean something so much simpler when read by another person doing the same qualification.

    Hi, I've just started tutoring childcare FETAC level 5, and I've been told I must do up lesson plans but I just don't know where to start so if anyone has an advice that would be great. Thanks

    Two people from your class posted a couple of minutes before you. Tell your teacher to stop spamming boards.

    You are teaching and you don't know how to do a lesson plan? Seriously? Are you a qualified teacher?

    Go to one of the ETB colleges and do one that awards a full award, not a partial one.

    I don't, sorry. They will be more expensive than an ETB and also tend to not give the full award.

    Have to ask questions about the quality of teaching and learning if tutors are asking these kind of questions.
