I feel like I’m starting every post like this, but time really has been flying by lately and I didn’t realise that it was already that time of year again – decision time!
Around mid-October, course applications open all over the UK for the next academic year. this time last uear I umm-ed and aaahhh-ed about whether to apply for a teacher training course, but in the end decided against it as I wanted to spend another year in my current job. As much as I love my job, and am really settling in to the new year, the plan is to only spend another year here and then move on.
But on to what?!
I have a few ideas, but to be honest I am pretty clueless.
Option 1 – Apply for that PGCE, stick to the original plan and go and be an awesome Psychology teacher.
Option 2 – Spend my Easter holidays getting a TEFL qualification, and then go abroad next year to teach English.
Option 3 – Train in some sort of Counselling or Psychotherapy.
I guess there are a few more sleepless nights coming up over the next few months!
Ah, second language options? I like it. One of my good friends has been teaching in Bucharest for three years now and doesn’t want to come back to the states. It is a nice option.
Lots of decisions to make but I have faith you’ll make a good one! They all sound so exciting, I think whatever you choose will be amazing. Teaching abroad sounds SO cool (you know me, anything travel can be exciting!)
