Especially those mothers who have children, compared with wandering when they were young, want to have a relatively stable job, be closer to home, have relatively free time, and better maintain the balance between work and family.

I just left the IT industry where I worked for 7 years. I will be a middle school teacher after the summer vacation. Because of this, many female friends of the same age are very interested in my career change process, so I think it is necessary to write another article.

The whole process lasted for more than half a year, from the initial written interview of teacher qualification certificate to consulting professionals, to constantly submitting resumes, taking real classes at school, constantly participating in written interviews, and finally getting an OFFER from an ideal school.

0 1 About the target

Why did I switch to being a teacher in the first place?

The reason why I am so determined to change careers is that the profession of teacher is closer to my ideal life, that is, studying in thousands of books and taking my children to Wan Li Road.

What did you hope to achieve at first?

The initial goal is to get an OFFER from an ideal school and become a people's teacher.

How is the actual goal achieved?

Actually, I really did it. This experience made me deeply realize that I can do it if I want to.

About the facts

What the hell happened?

In fact, I submitted a lot of resumes, and they all sank into the sea.

It's been two months, and I haven't heard from the school at all. Although I have been attending classes at school and practicing lectures by myself, I have been anxious for a long time because I didn't get feedback. Occasionally, I doubt my ability and worry that I can't successfully change careers, so I am forced to return to the working environment of 996 again, resulting in still no time to accompany my children and grow up.

Review the facts related to the original goal.

At first, I wanted to be a middle school teacher most. It was not until I received feedback from the school for a long time that I found that becoming a primary school teacher was not an easy task, and it was also more difficult than I thought.

Because if you want to be a school teacher, normal students will have an advantage. Most schools tend to be normal students and backbone teachers with teaching experience, but I don't meet these two conditions.

What are the shortcomings in the process of achieving the goal?

After I decided to change careers, I still didn't really teach to make up for my lack of experience.

Lack of teaching experience leads to relatively weak ability to prepare lessons and give lectures on the spot. Even if the interview is good, it is difficult to get an OFFER from a good school.

After the trial, there was no detailed resumption in time, only a simple summary, which led to the next trial.

What are the highlights in the process of achieving the goal?

There is a clear action plan in the process of changing careers, and you know what preparations you need to make to become a teacher.

With firm goals and strong actions, she has been advancing the road of becoming a teacher as planned.

Understand the whole interview process, what preparations need to be made, and find feedback from experienced teachers.

Seize every opportunity actively and never give up easily.

I have a good attitude during the interview and can communicate with the interviewer calmly.

cause analysis

What are the key factors leading to the deficiency?

In the special period of maternity leave, due to physical reasons and the need to take care of the baby, it is not suitable to be a teacher, tutor or short-term substitute teacher in a training institution to increase the teacher's experience.

I don't know whether to teach middle school or primary school, which leads to a large amount of lesson preparation, and it is impossible to prepare all the courses in a short time.

Insufficient preparation and practice for the trial lecture, a large number of trial lecture videos have not been recorded, and the teaching has not been continuously improved by watching the videos many times.

What are the key factors leading to the bright spot?

I am good at searching materials and making plans, and many tasks have clear time nodes, which is conducive to promoting the completion of the whole project.

In the process of achieving my goal, I have actively searched for information on the Internet and consulted professionals to make my goal more firm.

I took the initiative to buy supplementary books for research and went to the real classroom to listen to several classes. By actively learning professional knowledge, we have further increased our understanding of teachers' posts.

Seize every opportunity to go to the written interview and keep trying. I believe that every experience is an experience and a kind of value.

What are the killer weapons?

I think the most important thing in the process of changing careers is to ask people, learn from books and keep trying.

Asking for advice from others made me know myself better, which strengthened my idea of becoming a people's teacher.

Learning from books has made me know how the predecessors taught me, which has had a positive impact on my children and made me more confident in this industry.

Constantly trying, let me know the power of action, constantly experiencing the process of constantly trying, and let me realize that only by doing can I change. As long as I do it, I will definitely gain something.

Besides, is there any guiding significance for similar things?

When you are about to enter a new job, you can also use these three killers to guide yourself.

Next, my goal is to become an excellent computer teacher. I have relevant academic background and 7 years experience in IT industry. I believe I can do it well. How can I do better? You can start by asking people, learn from books and keep trying.

0 1 for advice

As for experts, my first thought is professionals. I once saw an information technology teacher online, and I plan to meet him online next week to ask him for information technology teaching experience.

In addition, I plan to ask my cousin to help me contact the information technology teacher in her middle school next week, and meet the teacher to talk about his classroom teaching situation, specific job responsibilities and other related experiences.

Learn from books

Tomorrow I'm going to Zhihu and Douban to search for high-quality books related to education and information technology teaching. From next week, I will study these books carefully, export my reading experience in the form of articles, and finally form my own knowledge system.

keep trying

I want to seize the opportunity of every class and polish every class like a product before class. Listen to the opinions of teachers and students after class, and constantly optimize and iterate your own courses.

We have to go through many things in our life. In fact, every experience is valuable and can provide guidance for our future path. If we review our experiences in time, it will help us to become better and better.
