Excellent video 👍. Could you explain how you do the 5 minute presentation?

Why the high speed delivery? Content great. Thankyou. But I'm feeling stressed now... I'm wondering if there's a specific motivation for this delivery style? If I was a student, I certainly couldn't cope 😢

Why you want to be a teacher, why this course why this university- talk about what this course offers, reputation of uni, , classroom experience, what impact it had on children , any example of children who you improved, do not generalise be specific, what quality you have for being a teacherteacher- mention all those skills which they have mentioned on their course outime ( what they are looking in a student applying for this course, lesson you have taught one went well and one ehich didn't went well and how can you improve it. , so if mistake made how I responded it improved in the next lesson and filled in the gaps,

Thanks for this vedio! can you please make vedio on physical education teacher.because I have done my bachelor's and master's in physical education. If I want a job over there, I have to complete PGCE program! So did they provide placement after the course?

You go on placements while you’re on the PGCE course! I’ll have a look into the PE teaching!

[@ummeroomankasmani9672]

Hi. When u talk about work exp. Do u mean the placements you did before doing the actual teacher training course (pgce)? So this is the volunteer work in schools along side your last year at university for your BA. Is that correct? And I was wondering since a pgce is like work placement/training do you need to have previous experience?

[@TheWaltonFamilyofThree]

Yes I’m talking about volunteering in schools before you start your PGCE. I didn’t do a PGCE but the BeD course I did required a minimum of 3 weeks volunteering experience in schools before being accepted onto the course. I think each course will have different requirements so I’d check with the course provider.

Will it work if I have a lot of experience in primary as a TA, but I'm going to apply for secondary teacher training? I spent only couple of days in secondary to see what it's like, but my main part of experience stems from supporting primary age children

[@TheWaltonFamilyofThree]

I think it will definitely help! They look for experience in school but can be TA experience or teacher experience as far as I’m aware!
