As i'm not a teacher or in the teaching profession but in fact a very
successful and award winning designer, I can say that being good at drawing
has little to do with design, my skills were as a graffiti artist, and
design is about conveying information, and as for being good at drawing,
what is good? A good artist comes down to a personal preference, what I
think is good can be crap to somebody else, What you need is creativity. If
more art teachers had this instead of great drawing skills maybe there
wouldn't be such a shortage of quality designers leaving schools and
colleges.

If you need any more help that is a little more constructive than Russell's
please post again.

But you do need to be able to confidently teach drawing and painting skills
at school - maybe you would be better off in FE where you could specialise
more?
