Withdraw from PGCE? Any advice please
hey,
I have a bit of a problem. I have got a conditional offer for Secondary MFL PGCE at Kingston University. However, now I don't feel like I want to be a teacher anymore. I have spent more time at secondary schools (as part of the condition for the course) and feel even more that teaching is not for me. I really enjoy languages and learning it but I feel that children nowadays don't appreciate teachers anymore. I don't want to spend the rest of my life shouting and persuading children to learn languages.
Now I don't know whether I should withdraw from the course to allow people that truly want to be a teacher a place or just wait till September when my course starts to see how it is. I might actually really enjoy it and should give it a try.
Any suggestions? Is anyone feeling the same or am I just overreacting?
