Hi everyone, for those of you requesting interview questions asked. Below is the link to my new video on that. Do check online as well for more! th-cam.com/video/AVbQDi3if4Y/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ka7txzcPUH4SQUqI
Hello lovelies! I'm glad we made it to 2024 and thank you all for making 2023 a success. I hope we all cease opportunities to redirect our dreams and steer them into fruition. I am here to guide anyone desiring to seek greener pastures by sharing my personal experiences and opportunities I come across with you. My first video for the year is up in response to some of your questions. I hope you watch, like and share. I wish you all the best of 2024! Happy New Year.
Hello, I just come across your video now. I have already gotten an offer for pgce French with Spanish at university of Portsmouth. I have been looking for current or ex beneficiaries of this get into Teaching. I am looking for real life experiences on how they were able to survive, pay fees and adapt in UK even though it comes with funding. Hope to hear from you please.
Hi dear, yes, you can use your degree in education to apply for initial teacher training, which you will be awards QTS at the end of your training. That's exactly what I am currently doing. You can add a PGCE or decide to focus on getting the QTS only. It all depends on your preference. I am here if you need any support.
@@RitaSiawI am currently in Nigeria. Hello. I have degree in Physics Education and I have teaching experience but not Secondary school. I have TRCN LICENSE which is my home country's license. Please, do I qualify to apply for this QTS training course. I don't have QTS.Thanks
Hi Margarita, You get to choose which university or service provider you want to use depending on where you are located and if the university offers teacher training or a degree in education + QTS (Qualified Teacher Status).
Please l got my qts early this year and l was assigned to an advisor who say l should provide to her my knowledge on UK matrix but don't no how to go by it. Any help
Hi Richard, can you find out from your advisor what the UK matrix means and how and what you need to get that? Honestly, I haven't heard about that, and when I checked online, I couldn't find anything concrete.
I live closer to Oxford, so I chose Oxfordshire Teacher Training. There were no bursaries for primary teaching. Only physics and languages I was aware of. Some people got bursaries, but as I explained, they are either natives and have been living in the UK for a long time and did physics in their degree. However, the government is giving relocation funds to physics teachers from across the globe to come and train to teach physics here.
You are welcome dear. I am very happy my video has been helpful. I am here if you need any help preparing for interview dear. Wishing you all the best!!!
Thank you so much for giving the reply .... I applied but I am not understanding what is the next process . I am from India. It's difficult to understand for your communication skills.. but I am very happy about you.
Good morning Rita. Can you apply for teacher training if you have been awarded with QTS as an overseas teacher but it's difficult finding a school from outside uk?
Yes, you can apply to train as a teacher since that will definitely offer you a student visa. Once you are done and awarded Qualified Teacher Status here, you can easily find jobs.
Hi Isaac, you will have to do English Language GCSE Equivalency Test. Some of the universities/training providers offer this course at a small fee. There are other organisations who provide that at a higher price. I hope this is helpful.
Hello,i cane across your video on TH-cam regarding this issue i have bin ttying to find a solution to I live in the uk and i have a child in the University backnin Nigeria studing English education , she's in her last year and sould likevto come to the uk to teach.pls would like you tomout us through my the course you can come in to study in a order to be a certified teacher in the uk pls
Hi Zaina, That's great. Yes, she can apply to come and study here, but she would have to pay fees as an international student. If she is currently doing a degree, then she can apply to do a PGCE with QTS, which she can teach in secondary school. I am more than happy to give you any guidance you need. Kindly email me rita@femininestaraafrica.org if you have further questions please. Thank you.
Hello. I have degree in Physics Education and I have teaching experience but not Secondary school. I have TRCN LICENSE which is my home country's license. Please, do I qualify to apply for this scholarship training course Thanks
Hi dear, you are welcome, and thanks for watching. The physics teachers I know they are looking for are for secondary school (since I can't tell what age group is secondary school in your home country), writing them to find out. However, there is no harm in trying since you aren't going to spend any money on doing that. So long as you are confident you can teach physics, I suggest giving it a try. You never know. Anything can happen.
Please do not apply for PGCE, for the sakke of your sanity. In the time you qualify you can get promoted in your job/live the easy life EFL somewhere. Sooooooo not worth the hassle. 3 years of debt, sleepless nights and lost weekends later thinking 'what was i even thinking?' Life is too short for this.
Well, I am not sure about your reasons but I always say people should make the choice that best suits them. I dropped my PGCE, but I'm on with my QTS. This will definitely give me better opportunities to earn better than working so hard and earning peanuts.
Hello my name sake nice programme. Please am currently in the uk as a carer but i have a degree in education back in my country can i apply for qts and how.long is the studies, how much and where is it done is it online
Hi dear, thanks a lot for watching and for the questions. Yes, with a degree in education, you can apply to do a one year teacher training (full-time) and nearly two years (part-time).
Hlo mam... I completed my graduation and post graduation in commerce...have done UGC NET (commerce)... Have two year experience in Degree college...also have B.Ed in commerce can u pls give little information can i become teacher in UK...pls rply
With any degree, you should be able to train to teach in the UK. As to what subject and what level to train to teach, commerce gives you a wide range of subjects, especially maths in the secondary school. So let me know if your question is answered and if you have any further questions. Thank you.
Thanks for watching. Yes, I don't see why not, especially since you are already in the country. It may require renewing your visa etc. depending on what kind of visa you currently have. The best part is that the training providers are very helpful if you have any form of challenge.
Hi Anu, Yes, you can apply, but that means you have to apply to do an undergraduate degree to get your QTS. To train to teach, you’ll need to have GCSEs at grade 4 (C) or above in English and maths (and science if you want to teach primary). You also need a degree in any subject to teach primary and secondary - if you have one or an equivalent qualification, you can do postgraduate teacher training. If you do not have a degree, you can do undergraduate teacher training to get a degree alongside qualified teacher status (QTS). Or you may be eligible to do a teacher degree apprenticeship (TDA)(opens in new window) and work in a school, earning a salary while getting a bachelor’s degree and QTS. I've added additional information for you to check out. Let me know if you need further guidance, please. Thanks for watching. Find out more about the qualifications you need to teach.
Hi, sorry for the delay in responding to your question. 1. If you are coming on a student visa (sponsored by your training provider) you cannot bring your family. 2. If you are coming on a skilled worker visa (meaning you are going to be paid while doing your training) then you can bring your family your family with you. I hope your question is answered. Let me know if you need any more information. Thanks for watching once again.
Yes, you will, and that will be done through the subject curriculum sessions to deepen your knowledge in the pedagogy and practice of teaching physics through placement observation of expert teachers and then you start teaching as well following what you've learned and observed.
Once you apply to the course as an international student and are successful, your school will provide a letter that you would use to apply for student visa.
Hi dear, it all depends on the kind of teacher training you are embarking on. If you already have a degree, it's a year for full-time and nearly two years for part-time. If you are going for a degree in education, that may take 3-4years.
@thelmalorrindalartey1308 hi dear rita@femininestarafrica.org that's my work email address. Probably you are missing something. Please check and retry it. Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Hi Whitney, Yes, you can use your degree to apply for QTS only or do the PGCE as well. It's just about a year's training, and you have given a Qualified Teacher Status (QTS). Do let me know if you need further support.

course. I don't have QTS.Thanks
But can u get a qts if u don't have a subject area like maths biology physic but want to go into Eyfs early childhood education
Hi , first time watching, please the personal statement,did you said 1000 words
Hi dear, honestly, I would have to check to confirm, but it should be stated on the form whenever you start the application, please.
Did you do any English proficiency test like TOEFL, IELTS to get this teacher training offer?
No, I didn't do any of those.
So, you don't choose the university? The government is your application and then transfers you to universities?
Hi Margarita, You get to choose which university or service provider you want to use depending on where you are located and if the university offers teacher training or a degree in education + QTS (Qualified Teacher Status).

your eyes are faraway from each other.
I wouldn't say it's worth persisting with. Have met many QTS, all have left.
Oh, ok, I get it now. Thanks you.

@RitaSiaw Will you be taught your teaching subject Eg Physics and also being taugh how to teach professionally?
Yes, you will, and that will be done through the subject curriculum sessions to deepen your knowledge in the pedagogy and practice of teaching physics through placement observation of expert teachers and then you start teaching as well following what you've learned and observed.
If u didn't apply for visa how did u get dere
Hi dear, that's because at the time of the application, I was already living in the UK with an EEA dependent visa.
Ooh
Please how can I apply for this visa to study PGCE with Qts outside uk
Once you apply to the course as an international student and are successful, your school will provide a letter that you would use to apply for student visa.
How long will it take and what's the fee?
Hi dear, it all depends on the kind of teacher training you are embarking on. If you already have a degree, it's a year for full-time and nearly two years for part-time. If you are going for a degree in education, that may take 3-4years.
Is there any scholarships available in the universities
Hi, currently, the only thing close to a scholarship I know about is the bursery for physics and language teachers.
Is means this is not free of cost???
You don't pay to apply however, you need to pay fees. There are bursaries for some of the teacher training courses if you are based in the UK.
my interview is on Friday. can I get your email and talk to you directly either in Zoom or Google Space?
