I enrolled in the online PGCE course at USQ for 2 reasons:
1) In the future I would like to teach in international schools. The PGCE will open many doors and employers will not throw my application in the trash bin anymore just because I’m not a native speaker of English. Actually, in a few years, I am considering relocating to the European Union, and I’m sure I won’t face such discriminations there as my country is also part of the EU!
2) Although I attended many methodology and teaching practice courses during my BA, I don’t have a degree in Education. The PGCE will solve this problem.
I don’t expect this course to be an easy one and I’m aware of the fact that I’ll have to put many hours into research and projects. But I am ready to do that. I even have my wife’s permission to take all the time I want for my studies! I’m also ready to sacrifice my after school and Saturday tutoring lessons (that bring more income) just to have enough time to dedicate to this course.
By taking this course I expect to widen my teaching horizon and become a better teacher.
