Whatever your circumstances; if you're about to graduate, or looking for a change of direction there are more ways to enter the profession than ever before. To ensure teaching is the right career choice for you, it makes sense to get some classroom experience. Training providers want to know that you have the skills and motivation to teach, and you will usually be expected to have experience of working with children of the relevant age, preferably in a school environment.
