Early childhood education is gradually becoming a specialized field bringing with it its own set of
challenges and rewards. The formative years in a child's life are crucial and a preschool teacher
makes a lot of difference in the lives of the little ones because a child's preschool experience is his or
her experience into the world of education. Every day brings delight as well as challenges in a
preschool teacher's life. They have to put a great deal of emphasis on each learner's individual needs
and interests.
Preparing the learners for future will require a lot of commitment, care and creativity on the part of
an early education teacher. Keeping the children motivated and engaged in various fun activities
requires loads of patience as well as stamina. The preschool teacher must have the drive to plan
lessons accordingly to attract the children's attention and be a good communicator who can inspire
children with a love of learning.
In order to be a successful preschool teacher one must be well versed with the basic theories of
early childhood development. Taking a certificate course for teachers like diploma in early childhood
education and diploma in Montessori teacher training will immensely help the aspiring teachers and
shape them into proficient preschool teachers. With the popularity of early childhood education
soaring, the number of nursery and kindergarten schools has grown in leaps and bound in India
making way for a number of preschool teaching job openings in every nook and corner of the
country. Efficient and certified pre-primary teachers are gradually becoming an essential component
of preschool education.
There is no dearth of preprimary teaching jobs in India where trained teachers are being recruited
on a regular basis. One can start as an assistant teacher and can move up to the post of principal or
director of a preschool after years of teaching experience. Those who have completed professional
teacher job training in early childhood education or preprimary education like diploma in nursery
teacher training or a diploma in early childhood care and education can expect better nursery
teaching opportunities.
Untrained assistant teachers can also enroll in an online teacher course like diploma in
primary/elementary teacher training course to acquire additional knowledge and skills expecting
quick career progression. Online teaching jobs in India are advertised in job portals and therefore,
those interested in applying need to follow these on a regular basis. The aspirants can also opt for
direct application by visiting local schools and dropping their CVs.
Accreditation
Asian College of Teachers (ACT) undertakes a continuous review of its teacher training courses to ensure imparting high quality education. However, there might be circumstances outside of ACT’s control which might affect its stakeholders like if you are planning to teach in a different country, applying for a teaching license, pursuing higher studies or trying to get the certificate approved by the Ministry of Education (MoE) of a particular country then you can do so with the certificate issued by Asian College of Teachers (ACT). However, each country’s Ministry of Education (MoE) or educational bodies set certain standards that are indispensable for the pursuit of higher studies or teaching in schools in that country. So it can be a possibility that you may be able to use the certificate for higher studies or teaching purposes in one country and not in another. Therefore, we strongly recommend that you investigate thoroughly and check with the relevant authorities regarding the acceptance of the certificate issued by us before you enrol on a particular course. ACT strives to offer high-quality education and its certificates can be valuable for various purposes internationally, but still it is crucial for individuals to verify the specific recognition of the certificate in the country they intend to use it, especially for formal education or professional licensing purposes. This approach ensures that the stakeholders make informed decisions regarding their educational and career paths.
