With advice and guidance on pay, career structure, the various employers in the sector, training, getting started, choosing what to teach and at what level, pastoral work, counselling and the full range of the teacher's duties, and shifting within and out from the sector this book presents a complete and comprehensive overview of careers in adult and further education.
