Any time spent on these topics should be in addition to the required hours for the examinable Units.
While candidates may view the main purpose of the Teaching Certificate examination courses to
be that of enabling them to pass their exam, that is not the course’s sole purpose. The tutor has a
wider responsibility in helping to prepare the candidates to be future teachers in the ‘real world’.
There is an almost endless list of topics relating to teaching that could be covered, but many are
best left until a teacher has some initial experience of teaching classes and uses them as further
development of their teaching skills, after gaining their Teaching Certificate.
