Just curious, but for those who know, what do you need to be a
teacher in kindergarten?
need to go poly and take up some diploma course in childcare
education or something?
also, what does the course teaches?
recently, i started to discover myself and that i actually like
little kids so much! those under 5 yrs old, or even 3 - 4 years
old, are so cute! everytime when i see them, i suddendly forget all
my worries and troubles etc, not to mention playing with them.
i can spend 1 whole week doing nothing but playing with
them!
but then, for a guy to become a kindergarten teacher is very
weird, because people tend to think that:
1) you're a paedophile (seriously, those **** paedophiles have
given people like me a bad name and people now are wary of guys who
likes kids)
2) you've no backbone, no ambition, a loser in life etc.
anyway, i'm already 25 yrs old liao, now working in office type
of corporate life and i dread it. And 25 yrs old go to poly and
study childcare with mainly 16 - 18 yr old girls is the weirdest
**** in the world.
The fastest/easiest/least stressful way to go into kindergarten
teaching is just to take up a CPT (Certificate, preschool teaching)
with any private school. As for what you will learn, let me just
copy-and-paste. Is up to your own interests and passion if you want
to take this route, as long as you have a clear conscience don't
need to worry unduly about what others think.
