ATPL Question

quick question:

I have my ppl and am approaching the 150 hours needed to do the CPL. I am a little confused with the difference between the CPL and ATPL. Specifically, my question is this: Is there a different skill test for the ATPL & CPL?

I want to teach flying and am not terribly interested in being an airline pilot. However, I wouldnt rule it out so I would need the ATPL if I change my mind. If I decide to to the modular ATPL course, and end up with a frozen ATPL can I use this and a flight instructor rating to get a job as a (paid) flight instructor. (I know you can do the FI rating with just a ppl). I dont want to do the CPL/IR then have to another load of exams for the ATPL if yo know what i mean.

cheers
