Second higher education preschool pedagogy remotely. Distance pedagogical education. Is it possible to shorten or lengthen the training period?

Teaching is a privilege. Although the Russian educational sector is getting closer to the concept of a service market, it remains conservative in terms of requirements for teachers. Only people with high-quality specialized training can teach.

This does not have to be your first profession. If a person feels the desire to teach, a second pedagogical education on the basis of higher education is open to him.

Our university prepares competent teachers who are able to give their students everything they need for quality professional development. Our future teacher can be today's economist, lawyer, psychologist, programmer.

Directions of teacher education

Selection of “Synergy” specialties according to the profile of the pedagogical direction:

• Classic program “Primary school teacher”. Includes mastering the world practice of pedagogy, enhanced by child psychology for preventive work with conflict situations. Students of this course study the theory and practice of motivation to study, tactics and strategy of programs for involvement in the educational process, methods of psychological assistance to children.
• The specialty of a preschool education teacher is one of the most in demand. Students are given detailed material on the psychology of playful forms of teaching, approaches to “difficult” children, and methods of adapting children to school.
• Administrative profile – “Management in Education”. Here students study the legal and economic components of the educational system, modern pedagogical technologies.

How to decide on the form of training?

Training is possible not only in the classic full-time program with the opportunity to study without interruption from work on weekends or evenings. Distance education from anywhere in the world is a “head start” for the new generation of students. Future teachers/educators can:

• Become a teacher by attending classes every day. This form is suitable for those who are focused on their studies and want to gain a temporary advantage over future colleagues. The accelerated full-time training program takes three years, the full-time training program takes four years.
• Receive a second higher pedagogical education in absentia from anywhere in the world thanks to the Synergyonline remote training platform. Lectures are conducted in video format. You can complete a full bachelor's degree program remotely in 4 years 6 months. Accelerated – in 3 years 6 months.
• Take a course in a weekend or evening school program, combining work with study (or family life with specialized retraining). The terms are the same as for distance learning (3.5 years accelerated, 4.5 years – full course).

Is it possible to shorten or increase the duration of training?

The length of study to become a teacher when changing professions or expanding the current profile most depends on the choice of form of training. But there are other factors that can change it. You can bring your diploma closer by:

• re-crediting passed subjects if the first profession is close to the pedagogical profile;
• development of an individual lesson schedule, early examination if there are grounds for its holding.

The period of study can be extended by one year. This is formalized as an academic leave, available under certain circumstances (maternity leave, health status, difficult family situation).

Further employment and career ladder

Only the student himself - the future teacher or educator - can determine the period of time from the start of his studies to employment. We have structured the training program so that our students can decide on a place of work already in the first year of study.

The job market for teachers is huge. Students and graduates are arranged daily:

• teachers and educators of privileged children's educational institutions;
• head teachers of schools;
• educational psychologists;
• curators of distance learning for children;
• leading teachers of preschool training centers or creative/intellectual development of children;
• methodologists;
• tutors;
• administrators of training centers.

The career ladder of a teacher is from a trainee teacher to a head teacher for educational work, head of a university department, deputy director of a prestigious children's educational center.

What should I do?

Holders of a higher education diploma have a privilege over future colleagues who are entering for the first time. To obtain a second higher pedagogical education, an examination in the Russian language, biology, or natural sciences is not always required. A diploma of the first higher professional education, an application form and a package of required documents (passport, photo), internal testing/interview is enough.

Pedagogy is a very broad concept. In the memory of most of us, the phrase “pedagogical institute” is firmly associated with the profession of a school teacher or kindergarten teacher. Many do not even suspect that they are graduating psychologists, speech pathologists, linguists... In recent years, psychological and pedagogical education has become increasingly popular, and the prestige of social work in the field of education has increased.

TOP 10 popular specialties:

If we are guided by the average passing score of the Unified State Examination, the most popular among applicants to pedagogical universities in 2011 were sociology, economics, foreign languages, philology and linguistics, as well as psychology. And this is not surprising. After all, a sociologist or economist can find a prestigious and highly paid job not only at school. And there’s nothing to say about foreign languages; serious employers will tear away a person with a deep professional knowledge of several languages. In the field of linguistics, a diploma from a pedagogical institute carries very good weight. Competition for these specialties reaches 7 people per budget place.

Professions related to the fine arts are also highly rated; the total Unified State Examination score here reaches 178. Most likely, this is due to the limited number of places for applicants, because not all teachers are engaged in training creative people. The competition here is not very big - only 3 people per place, but it should be taken into account that in addition to good grades, an applicant cannot do without artistic abilities - no one has canceled the creative competition.

But what to do if the Unified State Examination does not reach the required score, and since the 1st grade you have dreamed of becoming a teacher and are firmly convinced that teaching is your calling?

Then it’s a good idea to think about the profession of a music worker, social teacher or primary school teacher. In order to begin training in these specialties, you will need a Unified State Examination score not exceeding 110 points.

By the way, if we ignore the dry score statistics, over the last 10 years the professions of primary school teachers and preschool teachers have been steadily gaining popularity and the competition for these specialties never drops below 3 people per budget place.

Why? Firstly, if you decide to give your skills and love to the kids, you will never be left without work: the birth rate in Russia is now higher than ever, and secondly, education is very versatile - the first educator and the first teacher do not teach highly specialized subjects, but introduce our little ones to the huge and endlessly interesting world around us. It often happens that communication with kindergarten and elementary school employees determines the entire future path of a little person, because, in fact, these are the first adults with whom the child communicates almost as closely as with his parents.

I would become a teacher... Where do future teachers study?

Applicants wishing to obtain higher pedagogical education in Moscow have a fairly wide choice. , which offer their services in teaching certain pedagogical specialties on a budgetary basis, contains more than 130 universities, academies and institutes. True, there are not many institutes in which professional pedagogical education is the main direction, and not one of the various specialties in any department.

According to a survey by the website QIP.ru, Moscow Pedagogical State University takes first place in the ranking by a large margin (31,248 votes). This is one of the oldest pedagogical institutes, producing teachers of various specializations for more than 130 years.

By the way, if you did not pass the Unified State Exam as well as you would like, and the points scored are not enough for admission to the chosen institute, it makes sense to familiarize yourself with the requirements of other pedagogical institutions; perhaps they do not have such strict requirements for applicants for the coveted specialty.

Our country is “famous” for its traditions and largely conservative way of life: everything new comes very hard and sometimes with great difficulty and distrust.

It took many years to prove that distance education is no worse than classical education, and is superior in many respects: price, quality, training time, geographical boundaries, etc.

- this is, in fact, the same distance learning, which involves independent preparation by the student. It doesn’t matter where you live, and whether you have a lot of money or not: the price for such distance pedagogical training is affordable for every student, and there is no need to “take time off” from work, since you can study at a time convenient for you.

Upon completion of distance learning (retraining), you will be issued a diploma in the standard format established by the state, which will be sent to you by registered mail. This diploma is a state document conferring your qualifications and acts in exactly the same way as a regular diploma from a university.

It was already mentioned above that thanks to this method it is possible to combine your work with training, and study at home and at any time available to you. You can build a training program for yourself based on your individual characteristics.

What is required for this form of training?

In order to enroll in professional retraining remotely, you must have completed higher or secondary vocational education (requirements of the Federal Law “On Education” No. 273).

If you already meet these requirements, then you can enroll in vocational training (retraining). The profile of your previous education will not matter in this case, the main thing is that you have it.

1. You choose which one you would like to receive and leave a request for distance learning online. In response, you will receive a letter from the admissions committee managers with documents and instructions. Having filled them out and paid the receipt, you can begin training.
2. The following will be sent to your email: lectures, teaching materials, access to online libraries and assignments to complete. You complete them and send them to your supervisor, who throughout your training answers your questions and helps you.
3. After successful completion of your studies, you will receive a state diploma through Russian Post (by registered mail to your address). With this, your goal of obtaining a teacher education remotely has been achieved!

Upon receiving, everyone has the opportunity to work in a good, prestigious place. The main thing is not to forget to check that the educational center has a license for educational activities, so that your diploma is real, and not a “certificate” of taking courses.

• Firstly, all distance learning students have the opportunity to participate in seminars online, receive consultations from leading specialist teachers and all the necessary lecture materials on the subjects. Using Internet technologies, students also take differential tests on completed topics - questions are sent to a personal email on the educational institution’s portal or asked online, for which a certain time is allotted to receive answers from the student.
• Secondly, at certain intervals, everyone who receives a pedagogical education remotely does not need to come to the educational institution - you come only after completing your studies to pass state exams and defend your diploma.
• Thirdly, to pass state exams and defend their thesis, students are required to be present at the educational institution in person - this allows the commission to assess the true level of education of the student.

Corrective pedagogy in primary education

Previously, it was believed that correctional pedagogy is pedagogy aimed at correcting “difficult” children with neglected upbringing and behavior. People called them “neglected” children, usually from dysfunctional families. But correctional pedagogy in primary education has long since acquired other directions.

The specialty “Correctional pedagogy in primary education” has been redirected to help in the education of children with disabilities and impaired intelligence. These can be either congenital or acquired diseases. Such children are trained in a specific correctional institution, where correctional teachers work. They weaken or replace developmental deficiencies.

The main tasks of a correctional teacher are:

• Implementation of pedagogical control;
• Planning lessons and additional activities with a focus on each child;
• Work with parents of children, joint development of curriculum and tasks:
• Selection of training programs taking into account the characteristics of the class;
• Creating a subject-development environment in the classroom;
• Drawing up real reports for each child.

Answering this question, it is easier to say with whom the correctional teacher does not work. Children with autism, Down syndrome, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, mental retardation, musculoskeletal system disorders, as well as visually impaired and hearing impaired. Therefore, when going to study for the specialty “Correctional Pedagogy in Primary Education,” people often receive several additional specialties. This profession allows you to constantly be in the process of learning, since there are so many branches of correctional pedagogy.

If you have any questions, you can always write or call our consultant and get a pedagogical education remotely. We accept documents from all regions of the Russian Federation and CIS countries. We also offer training to anyone interested in in-demand professions.
