"Pre-school education" has always been a popular major in the college entrance examination. Many girls will fill in this major with the dream of being a kindergarten teacher, thinking that they can be a kindergarten teacher after graduation, but there are still some differences between "preschool education" and "kindergarten teacher".
First of all, we should make it clear that preschool education belongs to the field of education, and kindergarten teachers refer to preschool education.
It is a "professional concept", which is included in preschool education.
The training direction of preschool education can be divided into kindergarten teachers and managers, employees of preschool education institutions, teachers of preschool normal schools and preschool education managers of government agencies.
Kindergarten teachers are only one of the training directions of preschool education, but the demand for kindergarten teachers is greater than other types, so everyone will generally think that preschool education is kindergarten teachers, but it is not.
The age of children taught by kindergarten teachers is mainly at the stage of 3-6 years old, while the scope of preschool education is wider, including both early education of 0-3 years old infants and early education of 3-6 years old infants.
And the learning content of preschool education should be more extensive. In addition to the basic professional knowledge such as dance and music, we should also master the knowledge of children's psychology, infant hygiene, nutrition and health care, and children's education.
Although kindergarten teachers will also have the above courses, it is much simpler than preschool education, and the employment direction of kindergarten teachers is basically all kinds of kindergartens.
However, the employment direction of preschool education is not limited to kindergartens, but also includes some parent-child institutions and early education centers, or you can start your own business.
Under normal circumstances, the major of technical secondary schools is "kindergarten teachers", that is, only kindergarten teachers can choose after graduation, while the major of colleges and universities is "preschool education". The employment direction after graduation is not only kindergarten teachers, but the "preschool education" major with bachelor degree or above will involve more knowledge.
Analysis: Generally speaking, "kindergarten teachers" are only a part of "pre-school education", and kindergarten teachers can only engage in kindergarten teachers with low academic qualifications.
However, pre-school education will have a higher degree and a wider choice of employment, which means that students who graduate from pre-school education can do more than just kindergarten teachers.
Because the employment direction of preschool education major is mainly around children, proper and correct preschool education will have great influence on children's intelligence and future development.
Therefore, preschool education has always been highly valued by parents and is in a very important position, so the employment prospects will naturally not be bad.
Education direction
Teaching children in kindergarten is undoubtedly the correct direction for preschool education students, and what kindergarten teachers need most is to like children, be patient, caring and responsible.
Whether it is some public kindergartens or private kindergartens, the development prospects are optimistic, and other early education institutions and special interest classes are good choices.
Although the pressure in educational institutions may be greater, you can learn more correspondingly. If you have a strong ability to withstand pressure, you might as well challenge it.
Planning and editing of children's publications
In addition to kindergarten teachers, students majoring in preschool education can also engage in the planning or editing of books, newspapers, magazines and other publications related to children in the field of educational publishing.
However, this kind of work requires students to have deep writing skills, be good at writing planning and editing, and pay more attention to the applicant's preschool education experience.
Therefore, it is suggested that students who want to work in this field can be kindergarten teachers for a period of time, and then transfer to planning and editing after accumulating some experience, which may have greater advantages.
Children's psychological counseling
Because preschool education majors will also study psychology, early childhood education psychology, child development psychology and other courses, students interested in child psychology can also choose to engage in child psychological guidance in schools, child psychological counseling centers, child care centers, community service institutions and so on.
To sum up, students majoring in pre-school education are not limited to kindergarten teachers after graduation, and there are many choices of employment direction, so they can confidently fill in their volunteers.
However, if you want to do any job well, you can't just rely on the knowledge you have learned in school, but you still need to learn and accumulate experience in your work and improve your strength with the development of the industry.
