Passing on your skills isn't just about helping people starting out in your industry. It's about helping yourself, too. That's because it can be a truly rewarding experience - and a chance to enhance your career into the bargain.

Take a look at what you could get out of becoming a tutor:

• you could find yourself in a job that is really rewarding
• you might have the chance to work more flexible hours, and choose whether you tutor full-time, or continue in your job and tutor on a part-time basis
• you can have the satisfaction of using the transferable skills you've gained from years of working
• you can be rewarded by sharing your skills with a new generation of practitioners, who will find your experience a vital part of their training
• you will be using your 'hands on' work experience
• you can keep on caring - just in a different way - and you won't miss out on one-to-one contact with people either
• you can feel the job security that comes from knowing there'll be a need for your tutoring skills both now and in the future.
