Getting into teaching part time
mack456
Hi,
I recently graduated with a degree in journalism and have a passion for teaching and I would like to get into teaching English / Journalism / Writing, either at second or third level.
Or I would potentially like to get into tutoring children or adult education.
Does anyone know what is the most realistic option and what further studies I should do? Hdip in education or MA in specific field?
As for tutoring and adult education does anyone know how best to get into these part time?
Advice in general on getting into these fields and education required would be great. Thanks

First off you should check on the Teaching Council website to see if your degree would qualify you to teach.

If it is on the list you will need to do the PDE (HDip) which is now changing to a two year course if you want to teach in a secondary school.
To be honest I don't ever recall seeing a Journalism degree on the list.
