How to make a living as a full time martial arts instructor and not penalise students at the same time?

We Answered:

As you know your time is valuable, and in addition to physical skills, you are hopefully teaching discipline, self control, and responsibility as part of your student's training.

I don't see a problem with advising your students that you are commiting to teaching full-time, and with that commitment you are going to change how you do things a little.

If a student schedules a lesson and can't make make it, they should be responsible for the time that they asked you to commit to them. I would say that they should make up the lesson within the week, or pay you for 1/2 the time.

My suggestion is to make out a clearly stated sheet for every student, like an informal contract. State your commitment to them, read the agreement, and sign it in front of them. Then ask them to read it, review it, and get you a signed copy either right there or by their next lesson. I think this will add an air of formality, and legitimacy to your practice without scaring anyone off if you handle it correctly.

You aren't changing your practice or rates, but you have a real problem that needs to be addressed. Nothing wrong with running your business like a business!

Are there any jobs that require an MA in English and not a BA in english?

We Answered:

Not useless -- one of the best degrees you can get -- if you get it at a true quality school with true quality teachers.

Jobs -- Mostly editorial -- you start as a copy editor looking for commas and getting the grammar straight.

If they like you, the let you do some content editing. Here you get to chop out whole sentences, suggest areas that need expansion, suggest alternatives directions for the text.

If they still like you, you could become a senior editor. Now they start to pay you, enough to pay your rent. But now you decide what is good enough to get published.

Also freelance editing can be quite profitable, if you Peter, are well connected in the screenplay biz. These are always written poorly. The English is bad. They need editing. You can make more money as a freelance editor with good NY or LA connections than you ever could as a Senior Editor at Vanity Fair which is probably the best magazine for brainy people in USA.

Hope this helps you. By former preppie, holder of MBA, former teacher, columnist, author, and wannabe editor.

Careers Advice - should I go for an MA after my PGCE in the hope of a PhD or should I do my NQT year first?

We Answered:

Have faith in yourself. It sounds like you really want to go for the MA, rather than teaching, so my advice would be to postpone the NQT year and go the route of the MA and, hopefully, PhD. If you do the NQT year and then just drift along into teaching, you will probably end up regretting it (I'm not saying that teaching can't be fulfilling, but that you may regret not taking the opportunity to further your academic work).

As regards money...yes, that can be a problem. I left my job, after 11 years working in offices, to do an MA and I'm now in the first year of my PhD. Fortunately I have funding for the PhD, but the MA was self-funded, and I have the debts to show it! So money can be very tight, but I don't regret it at all.

Good luck.
