Hi Hasoon
You need to be under the wing of an approved FTO, for atleast 5-6 months before you are authorised by JAA & the state's CAA where you intend to teach. In order to be signed off by the CAA, your FTO will need to have completed a series of standard instructor reports on you, & submitted various other mandatory documents required by the CAA. Finally, you will be invigillated by the CAA on your chosen subject(s) you have opted for in a live classroom on a given date. Only once the above criteria has been fulfilled, can you be signed off as an official JAA registered ground instructor at ATPL level.
If your FTO does not adhere or teach the JAA syllabus, then you will have to seek approval from your local CAA to set up a JAA training organisation - This can & will take a long time. You would also need to have people on board who bring an element of experience with them in the ground training field - a CGI, DCGI, HoT etc.... Additionally, approvals would need to be granted - and judging by your post, you will have difficulty or no chance of getting them, as you probably have no experience of ATPL teaching at JAA level.
However, if I'm wrong, & you do have all the relavent boxes ticked - when did you get your JAA licence, from which country (state of issue), & what experience do you hold within a teaching environment?
You can however, just give private lessons without any approvals, but you do leave yourself open to any legal & perhaps licencing ramifications. If you provide students with wrong, obselete or any misleading information, your CAA will not look favouarbly on you - leaving you in some rather deep & treacherous waters, inc a rather damaged reputation at the end of it all.
IMO, the best thing would be for you to approach a ground school, & apply for a position. Depending on your knowledge & background, this might be the best way for you to progress.
Good luck
