So I started a teacher training course, and it's driving me crazy. The problem is that every day we're in uni they expect us to sit through two three-hour classes a day, one of which we're colouring in, and the other we're learning to count. None of this is helping me to be a good teacher, and I've been able to count since I was five. So. I'm trying to get out. Problem is, the jobs are not very forthcoming. So I have a couple of solutions, but none of them are particularly good just now. Advice please?
Option A; continue with course (although only ten per cent of graduates last year got teaching jobs from this course). also, I wouldn't graduate til december cause i already took time out, so would miss the majority of new jobs occuring in sept. Only good thing about this option is that I get paid £400 a month to train, so my bank won't empty.
Option B; I have an interview on tuesday for a job paying £16000. It;s not what I want to do, but it's cash. And if one of the graduate jobs in option C come up, I could leave for those. But it would be a bit of a shit thing to do.
Option C; I'm still being considered for three graduate jobs, and one non graduate job in the charity sector all starting Sept. But I don't want to rely on those coming through, because they may not happen. Also they're not what I want to end up doing, but I failed the maths test for the job sector I really want and now have to reapply in November. And at least they would give me good experience and leaway for said jobs I really want.
Option D; I could work at a summer camp for four weeks in March, and then two months In July to give me enough money to last long enough in case I get one of the above mentioned graduate jobs starting in Sept, but if I don't get graduate jobs, this is a very gay option. Only problem is, I really need cash in order to relocate for graduate jobs. Really need cash.
So - what would you do????????
