How can I become a high school teacher?
Asked by Caraleah
I am currently IN high school and am taking an internship class for grades k-3. I really love it and would like to become a teacher, but a high school teacher, not elementary. I was wondering how I could achieve this goal after high school is over. Also, would it be a good idea to open a business while being a young teacher? Please be as detailed as possible. Thanks!!

Best Answer:
You will need a college degree and certification in education to become a teacher. Plan on going for a masters eventually as more and more school districts are requiring that level of education for their teachers. Call your local school board to see what their qualifications are for high school teachers (or see your guidance counselor) and that should give you a good idea of what you need to do.

You need to get a bachelors degree first. Depends on what you want to teach in highscool. A bachelor of science degree is mandatory if you want to teach science in highschool. After you get a bachelors degree in a field you want to teach in, then you have to apply to teacher's college. I believe if you want to be a highschool teacher you have to do 2 to 3 years of teacher's college. It's hard to land a teaching job. Teachers tend to hold onto their jobs until they are forced to retire ! But hopefully you'll get lucky !
