ICT Teacher

The world of IT changes at a rapid pace. IT teachers have to pay attention to trends in their industry. This involves continuing education and professional development courses, as well as self-learning.

  • Common software includes Microsoft Office Suite, Photoshop, and Illustrator
  • They must be familiar with both Windows and Apple operating systems.

Monitor Student Progress Through Administrating Assignments, Quizzes, and Tests
