Hello Sir, I am a 35 yr BE(CSE) Male working in Bangalore with 12.5 yrs experience in Embedded systems domain with not bad salary. I want to switch to my passion which is teaching in a non technical field. Based on my interest, I have come with below options. 1) A computer science / Maths teacher with BEd degree. Do I also require Bsc / Msc course for this ? If so, can I pursue via distance education mode ? 2) A Professor in a BEd College - I am aware that we need BEd, MEd, Phd. Assume I am doing them, do they even welcome a 45 yr fresher for that ? Is work experience as a teacher in schools required for those posts ? 3) A CAT quants coach - with good interest in maths, I want to know what are the institutes / coaching centres looking in such candidates. I have 3-5 years in hand before making switch. Kindly advise what are the efforts, how I may need to prepare for this change.

Ans: I consider the Embedded systems is meant for geniuses like you. The ESD industry is booming and will continue to grow with the emergence of EVs and all the appliances and devices getting built in India. I would encourage you to talk to a few Engineering Colleges in Bengaluru an see if you can deliver a few guest lectures. Once you gain confidence and success, consider running a full semester. This looks like the best of both worlds--that give you the job satisfaction and good salary from your ESDM job For industry professionals BEd etc are not needed. All the best.

Hello sir, im a 35 year old individual having an MBA degree having worked with a few companies like Yes Bank, Vidyalankar classes and publications, LOOP mobile and VFS global pvt ltd. Due to some family emergence and mom's health issues had to leave my job and now since lockdown im totally jobless. The negative impact this time span left on my resume does not allow any employer to give me a job. Im planning to start teaching school students from class 1 to 10 but again the question arises how do i go about it as i had released a few broachures to make people aware of the same. But there was no response. Im totally blank as to how do i take a start in teaching career. If could you please advice me about how do i go about persuing my passion of teaching??
Ans: It's great to hear that you're passionate about pursuing a teaching career, especially with your diverse background and experience.

You may consider some of the steps below:

1. If you are interested in teaching in school or coaching institutes, find out the ones near your place and send resumes to all of them.

2. Find if any of your contacts are in this field and leverage them

3. Make some youtube videos on different topics and assess your performance

4. Start making your study material

5. Nothing in too small. Start with whatever you can, and, if you continue with sincerity, it will definitely grow.

6. If your brochures didn't yield any response, consider revisiting your marketing strategy. You could try targeting specific neighborhoods, using online advertising, or collaborating with local newspapers or magazines to promote your teaching services.

7. Stay updated on teaching methodologies, educational technology, and the latest trends in education. This will help you adapt your teaching methods and stay relevant.

Remember that building a teaching career takes time, persistence, and adaptability. While it might be challenging initially, your passion and determination can lead you to success in this new endeavor. Good luck on your teaching journey!

I am engineer with 16 years of IT experience and now a break of 11 yrs. But in 11 yrs I had been taking Quantitative aptitude lectures as a visiting faculty in various engineering and MBA colleges and also done Mutual fund certification. I haven't been siting but doing many things professionally in last 11 yrs(In my subject of interest as Maths, Teaching, Finance, Accounting, Wealth Management). I was thinking of doing ESG certification. What kind of role I would get if i am CFA ESG certified.I am looking for Professionally and intellectually engaging role where I can contribute to Society. Not a very NGO type( I have tried working with few NGO's)
Ans: I won't recommend you to go for ESG certification unless you are having a background of Env. Engg and Environmental Impact Assessment. The certificate course of ESG is costly also. I would request you to open your own academy ( if off line not possible then online) and go for only one subject. Let me know your age.Focus only on one subject. You have explored many areas and now you are perplexed. Here the questions are assigned to me through rediffmail. So second time whether your question will come to me or not is not known to anyone of us. Due to the policy I can’t share my email ID and Phone Number. But I would request you to follow me in LINKEDIN and send request so that I can accept you, then through LINKEDIN I can counsel you in the future multiple times. Through LINKEDIN I will be readily and easily accessible. I have counselled and changed thousands of lives. As long as I am there I won’t allow you to be defeated. Mind that always I am there with you like an invisible shadow to show you the right career path.
