Teacher's Certificate Program
The purpose of the Teacher’s Program is to graduate competent,
professional level instructors of Temple Knights Martial Arts.
This program will allow individuals with teaching aspirations the
opportunity to develop their skills to the highest possible level.
Teaching is a skill that must be learned. Many highly proficient
martial artists have failed to establish successful schools because
they lacked the appropriate teaching and business skills. This program
is based on Temple Knights 25 years of experience and success in
the martial arts. Teaching martial arts for self defense, fitness,
health and well being is not only personally rewarding but can also
be financially rewarding as many professionals will tell you. Whether
you are looking for a career in the martial arts or simply wanting
to increase your personal level of competence, Temple Knights Teachers
Program will challenge you to your highest potential.
Curriculum
Personal skill level - This part of the program will be an ongoing
one on one critique and instruction of form and technique with the
aim of bringing the participant to his or her highest level of ability.
Interpersonal Skill - teaching requires many skills such as effective
listening, speaking, body language, understanding your students,
learning methods, maintaining discipline, conflict resolutions,
developing trust and inspiring students, ethical instruction and
leadership.
Business Skills - A successful teacher needs to apply his or herself
to the business side, with the same enthusiasm that is applied to
the arts. Therefore the study of business skills such as financial
management, office organization, sales, advertising and promotion
will all be covered in this program.
