I know that do need quaalifications. I am a native Spanish speaker and have over 3 years of work experience but I dont have a bachelors degree and I find that most Foreign Language Education programs are postgraduate studies and I don't feel (at 27 y.o.) like going back to school for over 4 years!
I already hold a certificate in teaching spanish as a second language, what I'm looking for is a good BS degree.

To teach Spanish to adults, it is usually required to have demonstrated proficiency in the language. ESL certification is a good idea, as well as a major or minor in the language you want to teach. However, your question largely depends on where you will be teaching, as different institutions and different countries have different rules. Brigham Young University in Provo, UT has one of the best language programs in the USA. Check it out.

And I'm now not so definite they are directed closer to 'typical' American youngsters as they're directed to hispanic youngsters. (Just to elucidate, whilst I say 'typical' American youngsters, I imply youngsters who don't develop up with moms and dads and loved ones who fluently talk Spanish) The media is aware of simply up to any one else that many extra hispanic households have moved into the US just lately they usually wish to draw the ones individuals. Since those youngsters develop up understanding 2 languages, they feel that having a TV exhibit that teaches youngsters phrases in Spanish will aid to additional their fluent potential within the language as good as English. Think approximately whilst you noticed Sesame Street a decade in the past; it taught youngsters easy methods to rely, spell, and had a few well instructing gear; actually the exhibit was once scientifically formulated to train youngsters and constructed via scientists. Also, their youngsters are going to varsities in which each person speaks English and cultural diffusion takes position. Instead of getting youngsters lose their Spanish language knowledge whilst being surrounded via English-speakme youngsters, they use suggests like those to aid youngsters maintain their language knowledge alive. They are often taught the equal phrases, too. So, despite the fact that those suggests is also permitting non-Spanishp-speakme youngsters to be taught a few few terms, I consider it truthfully has to to with benefitting the Spanish-speakme youngsters.

yes, anytime you teach anything, you have to have some kind of certification in that field, and some type of lesson plan, but moreover, you have to have hours in training, that counts as experience. some colleges ask for a set amount of teaching courses first, to be able to teach. there are courses at many colleges that offer that training, and of course its always good to be able to speak, read and write the language you intend to teach.
there is no Best School, for forign languages, and sometimes totally immerse yourself in that language of your choice is also a good way to learn it, so you can teach it.
