Guest Lecture – Helen McCarron – Claire Butler

Today’s lecture was given by Helen McCarron and Claire Butler and was about working self-employed and everything you needed to know to accompany this.

 

This followed on nicely from Lucy’s lecture as it went more into detail about the logistics of working freelance and even went into a little bit of detail as working as a freelancer when paired with being a teacher which is something I’m highly interested in doing.

 

They outlined areas such as income, tax, types of self-employment, registry and other considerations which was useful as these were areas I hadn’t even considered or thought needed to be addressed from the get go.

 

Furthermore, they outlined some pros and cons of this type of work which was helpful as it has cemented this form of work as a likely possibility for a future career as many of the down sides are supplemented by working as a teacher alongside this.
