In most cases all you need is a Bachelors Degree in English and a teaching certificate. Teaching certificates are easier to get than a Bachelors Degree in Education. In response to part two, you most definitely could be an English teacher. These days you can get a teaching job without have the Education Degree at all. you can obtain an emergency credential depending on what county you are applying in, which allows you to teach for about 30 days in the same location. Best of luck. Pursuing English as a B.A. and then a credential would be more satisfying in my opinion!
