    Hi, I'm in 5th year and I want to be a secondary school teacher (hopefully geography and french, although I'm struggling to find a college anywhere which allows me to study that :/) and I just wanted the process of becoming a teacher explained simply to me.
    Thanks

    Look for Arts courses. (General BA Degree)
    e.g.
    https://www.ucc.ie/en/ck101/
    That would be 3 years.

    Then another 2 years on the PME for your teacher training.

    Think carefully about what subjects you choose.

    Geography might be good for other non-teaching jobs (County/City Councils, Dept. of the Environment, EPA etc.)

    Talk to career guidance teacher (or a geography / languages teacher in your school too!).
