you do no longer say what grades you're interested in coaching; which will influence your direction besides. As others have suggested, it varies from state to state, yet you will would desire to obtain a coaching credential. In some states, this would be a submit-BA certificates, yet others require a MA. in case you % to instruct center or severe college, you will would desire to a distinctive set of tests than user-friendly--you will additionally would desire to strengthen into qualified in a concern (math, English, and so on.) which will require a concern-remember competency attempt, while user-friendly demands different concern competency. Google your state + instructor credential to verify what you will would desire to do.

Absolutely! That is part of the No Child Left Behind definition of a "highly qualified" teacher!
You must at least have a bachelors degree, then you must get certified to teach in the state you want to teach.

Yes, you do, unless there are exceptional circumstances. Sometimes exceptions are made for areas where special skills are required - for example, a well known artist may be invited to teach an art course, without having a degree, simply because he or she has proven their abilities in the world of art. That doesn't mean they know how to teach - it just means they know their subject matter well. But this usually happens at college or university level and seldom in the public school system.

Yes you do but it doesn't necessarily need to be in education. If you already have a college degree that isn't in education but something like business, you can go through an alternative certification program to become certified to teach that subject.

Yes, speaking as a teacher myself, I have a B.A. in History w/ Poly Sci minor, B.S. in Criminal Justice and a Masters of Secondary Education. You have be certified in the area you want to teach so, if you want to teach English - B.A. English and so or you go directly into an Education degree program and then after all that is done you have to pass a state/national certification test (i.e. PRAXIS II).
Once done with all that your learning never stops as you continue to grow and get comfortable in your classroom.
And contrary to some comments Christian and Catholic private schools are certified through regional accredidation and by the time the students graduate they already have finished 1/2 of their freshman college workload.

Yes - and a teaching credential.
Rod above is incorrect... my wife teaches at a Christian school and a Bachelor's Degree is required... Bible is only the only variance to academic subjects taught in public schools... and they are WASC accredited.

Yes and no. You can become a Teachers aid well your still going to school for Teaching. This will at least get you in the door. Some schools will hire you and then pay for you to continue school so you can move up on the teaching ladder. If you want to be a teacher in a daycare or preschool you don't need a degree ither. however I would suggest getting CPR and First Aid certified before you apply anywhere. it alwasy looks good.
