Teacher Training Distance Education

This course is for those teachers who want to hone their skills and get updated with the current teaching styles. Moreover being distance education, it allows the candidate to keep up with their current life scenario with no excess time wasted in travelling.

However most will argue that classroom teaching has far better effects on students than distance education, as there is a one-on-one with students rather than only books to see. But for a student who is inclined to learn about teaching and teacher teaching the modules serve the purpose completely.

Also help is always available from the institute if some particular amount of understanding is required or one is to shed some more light on a topic or argument phrase. Hence this way the student can always move on with one more diploma to their credit.

Distance education for teacher training covers all the topics of classroom training. Hence in no way do you miss out on any important topic. Even more project work is focussed upon, where the candidate have to delve into the field. Do a questionnaire session; understand child psychology, child-teacher relationships and so on.

The course fee varies from institute to institute. However the basic cost begins at Rs. 10000 for a six month diploma.

Some of the topics that are covered include:

  • Difference between Adults and Young learners
  • Development stages of a young learner
  • Montessori
  • Piaget
  • Language and the brain
  • Language and acquisition of the same
  • Lesson planning
  • Behaviour Management
  • Large Classes
  • Mixed Groups
  • Teaching practice sessions
Some institutes also offer internship for the students who have completed the diploma. While some are interned during the course period, so that they get a hands-on approach. Teaching practice is very important to every student wanting to be a teacher. As no amount of modules, coursework can ever match up to understanding and teaching students in person. Every child is different and every child has his own perimeter of understanding every topic.

Hence one has to change or re-asses the way the teaching is done so that students are in a better position to receive whatever is taught to them. The practice includes teaching primary students and pre-school students under the watch of senior teachers or heads who evaluate and asses the student. Once the candidate has completed the training and is successful in the same, a form is signed, stamped and sent to the course operator.

Once the coursework, fieldwork, research, training, internship etc are genuinely finished every student gets a certification, that the candidate is now in a position to be a teacher and can handle the responsibility of teaching young minds.

Teaching Jobs in India

Teachers have always been one of the most prized wealth of any country. They are the foundation builders and keepers of national wealth. While some may disagree to this axiom, most know that without teachers a country will only grow backward.

Teaching in the country was one of the most esteemed jobs one could ever find and is still looked upon with respect and sincerity. Once a teacher, always a teacher. Infact the loyalty for this profession has only grown in leaps and bounds. In the beginning there were only state run schools or English schools run from Catholic charity. Today it is a different ball game altogether.

More than 15000 schools are present in the country right now with 8000 of them being private schools. With this enormous growth of schools the obvious is that teachers are always in demand.

There are different requirements of teachers across different schools and colleges and even more at universities. With pre-primary teaching coming much into being – teachers here are preferred who are young, dynamic and are ready to accept change.

For pre-primary teaching one has to complete 10+2 and do an elementary teacher training course. While some institutes also insist on graduation as the basic requirement for eligibility to elementary training. For basic teaching in schools and colleges a B. Ed. or a D. Ed is necessary beyond a 10+2 or 10+2+3 education. These are full time courses and there are no part-time or distance education. This is because the student is fully immersed in understanding the various teaching methods.

With a PhD in hand many teachers can directly get into teaching as this is one degree that is looked at with great respect in the country.

The following are a few vacancies that schools and teachers mostly have:

  • Computer training teachers
  • English teaching
  • Primary teachers
  • Economics

Payment methods
State run or affiliated schools and colleges have payments made on basis scales. These scales are mostly 6 year, 10 year, 12 year and 20 year based. According to the stipulated details in the scale will your increment happen in that year of a teacher? The beginning teacher salary can be Rs. 8000 to Rs. 15000 and increase according to the scales.

However private schools do not function in this manner. Payment to teachers is basis funds of the institute and the teacher’s competency. One can start at Rs. 25000 and grow enviably in this sector.

Preschool Teacher Training

Training young minds is not an easy task. Involves years of training and understanding child psychology and child behaviour. Moreover, these teachers have to love children, because as cute as they are they can stress you out and leave you highly agitated. Hence love for children and playing with them has to be a self-motivating attitude that pre-school teachers must possess.

Children are like little sun balls, they have a fierce amount of energy stored in them. Channelizing this energy is one of the most important tasks of a teacher. Children vary from 2 years onwards and hence their attention span is very limited. Keeping them occupied with colours, numbers, letters, paint and then taking them to next level of teaching math, science and algebra, can be quite a task.

There are various types of preschool training. The most well-known is the Montessori style of teaching. This has been on the basis of work done by Maria Montessori who developed this method in 1897. It is a model on which a trained environment is created and children are free to choose what they want to do. However as the environment are certain, children automatically act spontaneously for their own development.

The classroom environment is based on the growing child’s needs. As children grow physically, lose their teeth, have longer legs and a torso. Mentally they get into the ‘herd’ philosophy, doing whatever their peers take up. Here is where the child’s personality gets developed. The classroom is filled with small sized chairs and tables with toys and books kept at child’s reach on shelves. Once the teacher explains the activity, the children are then allowed to take up the activity or not to take it up according to their interests.

This style of teaching is divided into 4 planes. These planes are based on understanding the internal growth of a child that takes place physically and mental growth of a child in response to her environment. Basis this, education methods and styles of teaching are undertaken extensively. Not more than 20 children are taken into one class so that attention and ideation can be imparted to each of them.

Some of the below listed are pre-school training centres:

  • Diploma in Early Childhood Care and Education - Indra Gandhi National Open University, Maidan Garhi, New Delhi 110 063, India
  • Diploma in Early Childhood Care and Education - SNDT Women’s University, Nathibai Thackersey Road, Mumbai 400 020, India
