Just a note for anyone in Victoria, Australia or more specifically around the Keysborough area who’s interested in getting into teaching/looking for instructing work. Melbourne School of Pony Equitation are on the lookout for more instructors.
You don’t need a qualification but can work towards your EFA Level 1 through the school and gain teaching experience. A sound knowledge of riding principles and tacking/untacking horses would be needed however to carry out lessons. A general lesson consists of one to up to half a dozen students who catch, groom, tack up their horses then ride and bring in and untack, groom and put away.
The school has a 70m x 30m outdoor arena as well as a cross country course, jumps paddock and other areas to ride. If you’re interested in teaching and are available over weekends, consider contacting the school for work.
