Re: What can i teach?
Well, if you qualify to be a teacher then, in theory you can teach anything
There used to be a "rule of thumb" that you could teach up to the level below your achievement ... this would give A level Bus Studs and GCSE in all the things you have A levels in
People do teach outside of this, however ... I have taught KS3 drama, KS3+4 ICT and KS4 Business studies without having done any of these at school -

Re: What can i teach?If you have a degree in business and you go on to gain a pgce in business then you can teach that. You may be able to teach something similar as well (such as economics) if the headteacher agrees.(Original post by Oaktree)

Re: What can i teach?You missed the finite pronoun. Minor sentences may be acceptable in everyday speech and writing, however, we're being incredibly pedantic regarding grammar aren't we?(Original post by JaCkT794)
"What can i teach?"
"I" should be capitalised. I'm Just saying, don't be an English teacher. -
Re: What can i teach?LOL I'm just saying, considering the OP wants to be a teacher yet lacks basic spelling/ grammar....(Original post by Mr. Approachable)

I'm 16 and don't plan on being a teacher so feel free to correct me as I don't care. -

Re: What can i teach?I'm sure the OP will not be an outcast from the teaching profession for not capitalising an 'i'. We're not that cruel. You're 16 and don't care about things? That's good, for a moment I thought you were doing what every teenager does at that age.(Original post by JaCkT794)
