Hiii hun xxx I thought this was so helpful❤️❤️ xx thank you so much for posting this! I’m just about teaching ESL English to kids abroad in the Middle East xx
Thank you for this, i'm doing my pgce now and it's been great but pretty overwhelming. Since uni have only been online now because of covid it's been really hard to make friends and I've felt quite lonely! Your information and your recent evidence bundle video has helped me to relax a bit :)
@@MysteryDateWithaBook It's tough but I'm getting there! started my placement back in September so it's been nice to have a change of scenery than staying at home all day haha. we were only able to go into university for one week so I didn't really get much of a chance to get to know anyone but recently I got added to a whatsapp group and we all help each other out :)
@@farzinmoosa5322 Yes, Inhad 2 interviews. Both involved a literacy test (they will note down your SPAG efficiency). In the teaching part of the interview they want the following: • Model positive values, attitudes and behaviours • Establish relationships with pupils • Plan appropriate activities • Show your understanding of the task • Speak clearly • Make it interesting and engaging • Present the objective and focus on completing the task from the brief (you will be given a subject to teach) • Be aware of the time, you have a time limit if 20-30 minutes, plan it wisely • Consider adaptations for higher/lower attainers • Tell the children if they're doing well, praise them for trying and correct them if they're wrong In my first interview, I had to teach children to add tens and units, they didn't understand that 10 1s go into 10, I didn't have any counters to help them, this made it difficult for me to complete the task. I still got the place because I reflected on my lesson and what I could keep and change. They're looking for your potential, your passion and they way you respond under pressure. Be aware of current events in education, i was asked about them during my interview. You will be asked why you want to teach your subject and/or year group, have a good answer ready for that. Your main focuses: Be calm, positive and professional Be prepared for questions and to make mistakes in your teaching task (it will not go as you plan it to) Concentrate on correcting issues and building relationships with the children And ultimately, be passionate and know why you want to teach. My co-worker went for an interview with someone who cried during her teaching task, she still got the place for reflecting well on it. Good luck :)
Hey there! This video was so helpful, I'm about to apply to do my PGCE (unsure whether to do it university or school direct) but because I don't have any school experience I'm concerned about lesson planning etc - when you said get resources from Twinkle (and you mentioned a couple of others, didn't catch them) are these including lesson plans? I know il find out a lot more when I actually start but the thought of completely planning 100s of lessons from scratch is really worrying me I wouldn't know where to start 😂 xx
Hello and thank you for the tips! I was wondering if you could share, or recommend where to find PGCE materials to study prior to when the program starts? Cheers!
Really informative video. Please do more videos related to the PGCE. Also, during your placements did you get time to plan lessons when you was not teaching?
Hi, you've talked about what it looks like on placement and planning etc but please can you share what the workload looks like in terms of our own learning, e.g assignments. Many thanks 😊
The making friends thing just hasn't happened this year unfortunately. All lectures are online so none of us have met before and even if you get put in the same school as someone you never see them due to classes being kept apart.
@@MysteryDateWithaBook liked it? I loved it! In Septembet I'll be starting a PGCE in secondary chemistry so I'm looking for videos to prepare. This is the best one I've seen so far. Btw I'm loving all the harry potter/ pokemon stuff in the background 👌🏻 you clearly have impeccable taste.
For an overseas teacher living outside UK & having neither a work permit nor a national insurance number, does that mean she is not entitled to apply for a teaching post in UK?. As to the QTS, can it be obtained online? Does it have an expiry date? Where may I get materials to study it? Can I submit a proof of enrolment and work till I receive the certificate? Is there any exceptions for teachers from QTS or any other alternatives? What’s the shortest time to get QTS?Can you teach while earning it? Is there a table that clarifies the diff. Bet. Pgce and qts esp. with regard to the requirement of each?
