You need to take the Liberal Studies major. Its basically a little bit of everything. Its a lot of general education classes tailored to teachers. Then once you finish the 4 year major to get your bachelors. You need to take the CBEST and the Multiple Subject Test. Then you need to get your teaching credential (about another 2 years). Once you get your bachelors and CBEST taken, you can start as a substitute teacher until you get your credential.

Short answer: a bachelors degree that satisfies the education licensure requirements of your state. \n\nWhat that means depends on the state you live/work in. Each state sets the requirements for teaching licensure, so the colleges within each state prepare their students for the requirements of their state. \n\nObviously, the requirements don't vary a lot between states, and many states have reciprocal agreements (for instance, if you got your college degree & teaching license in North Carolina, you could still get licensed to teach in Massachusetts without much hassle). \n\nTo find out the requirements for your state, you'll need to visit your state's education web site. The easiest way to find it is to search --teacher employment [your state]-- in a search engine. For instance, teacher employment North Carolina gets me  to http://www.ncpublicschools.org/employment/.

In the United States the terms college and university are used fairly interchangeably.  Both colleges and universities offer bachelors, masters and some PhDs.  There are also professional graduate schools (medecine, law, vetinary medicine, dentistry).\nOne can teach with a bachelor's if one has completed the requirements for teacher certification in that state.  For some states, teacher certification is completed with a Masters, for others, it is completed along side the bachelors.\nSome colleges, universities and community colleges (also known as junior colleges) offer a 2-year degree called an associates degree.

Requirements for regular licenses to teach kindergarten through grade 12 vary by State. However, all States require general education teachers to have a bachelor’s degree and to have completed an approved teacher training program with a prescribed number of subject and education credits, as well as supervised practice teaching. Some States also require technology training and the attainment of a minimum grade point average. A number of States require that teachers obtain a master’s degree in education within a specified period after they begin teaching.

Each state deparment of education has a website.  Each state has different requirements for teachers and for which subjects there is a need for teachers.  Generally needed is a bachelor's degree with a prescribed number of education courses, student teaching experience, a teacher's license from that state (each state is different and they generally don't recepricate).  An exam is usually required to get a teaching license.  Contact the state department of education for any state that interests you and see if there is a need for ESL (also known as TEFL, ENL, teacher of ELL (English language learners) etc.\nI know that ESL teachers have several listservs--you might google ESL and see if you can find one.  I'm sure they can answer your question better than I can.  There is not much of a need for teachers of English to speakers of English--in fact, there is more of a glut on the market.

AS degree must be an Associates Degree which generally takes two years to complete.\nBA is a Bachelor of Arts Degree and would generally take four years to complete.  A BS Degree is a Bachelor of Science degree which is the same as a BA except you take different courses such as two years of a foreign language instead of a statistics class.\n\nA Masters degree is obtained once you receive a BA or BS in a subject such as English, Political Science, Biology, Social Science, Psychology, etc.  A Masters Degree generally takes two years to complete, during which you do research on a topic of interest to you for presentation.\n\nPhD. requires another two plus years and involves writing a doctoral dissertation and presenting it to the university for review and certification.  I am sure there are many more requirements that I am unaware of as I only recently received my BS in Social Science myself.

I believe all states have a minimum Bachelor's Degree as a requirement for Teaching. Some ,like NY ,require a Master's. Check out the Arizona Department of Education's website for specific requirements or just visit any local 4 year college.\n\nhttp://www.ade.state.az.us/certification/\n\nhttp://coe.arizona.edu/pages/\n\nGood luck to you! :)

It seems like they would've taught you that in college.\nBut, you can just see what your state/areas requirements are for the level your teaching and do that.

There are a couple of ways that you could go about getting this. If you already have a degree, you can take the alternative route. This consists of taking a few classes at a university and then taking the Praxis I and II. If you currently have a teaching degree, then all you have to do is take both parts of the Praxis. After you get your certification, you have 5 years to earn some C.E.U.'s to renew your teaching license. This is my second year teaching and I love it. GOOD LUCK! :)

Do you want to teach high school?\n\nDo you have a degree in education?\n\nIf you have a degree in education you need to determing which state in the US you want to teach in. You of course would need a work permit because you are from another country and a visa, etc.\n\nBut as far as teaching each state has different requirements. You would need to contact the state that you have interest in (board of education) and see which tests, etc. you need to take in order to get a license in that state.\n\nIf you want to teach at the university it is much simpler. You need at least a masters degree but it does not have to be in education. Simply contact a university that is hiring in your field and inquire. To teach at this level you would just need to get the work permits, etc. and would need to get a license for teaching.

Most any university should have a education progam.  It does depend on what area and grade level you want to teach.  If you want to do secondary (high or middle school) or elementary.  I had a friend that transferred from Texas to the Universtiy of Denver and she is a teacher.  If I am remembering correctely to get certification as a teacher in secondary education you pick what subject you want to teach, make that your major, and then minor in education.  I think she said it was the same as in Texas, but I have know clue about elementary ed.  Hope this helps.

it depends on what state you want to teach in.  all of their criteria are different.  look for the website of the state department of education for whatever state you want.  they will list their requirements.  at the minimum you will have to take some tests and then receive an emergency credential.  (you will have to then fufill more requirements to get a clear credential).  at the most you will have to start all over and get the appropriate credential.  it depends how desperate the state is.  i teach in southern california, and believe me, they're desperate down here.
