TTC: A gateway to the teaching industry?

Must there be a reason to do something? Maybe, maybe not.

Its so interesting that some asked about whether going through the teacher training course will guarantee them a job position later. Honestly, i don't know. A certification from the course can be a gateway to another path, but the sustainability of this journey is questionable.

However much i may support their initial step to this path, even luring them... may be also pushing them into the fire. In the opposite, its always good to have a head start somehow, somewhere... the question is: What are you working for if you're in the course?

I've met a good handful of them going through the course not working for the certification, but more intangible reasons.
Just for a simple reason, so that they can be the teacher of themselves, keep-up the well-being of the other side of their life ( besides their work) for a wholesomeness and well being... in order to keep doing the things they like to do.

Taking up teacher training course does not means a acute change in our career or work. It can be, if the interest is there. Otherwise, it is a gateway of life.
