What are the challenges of teaching the English language?
There are a couple of challenges related to teaching English. For most people, they think they can teach English because they are native English speakers, however this notion is false. There is a reason why people go to school for teaching degrees. Teaching English means understanding how the English language works (lexical categories, syntax, etc.) and being able to teach it effectively and accurately. Take for example teaching grammar. Can you explain infinitives and gerunds? How about how to identify phrasal verbs versus prepositional phrases? If you get training (CELTA for example) or even receive your MA in TESL, this will help you understand how to teach English. Another challenge to teaching English can exist in the location of where you teach. I don't mean rural versus urbal communities, but teaching English abroad requires you to understand the culture and how the native language is used in teaching English. As a teacher in South Korea, I have learned nuances in Korean which have helped me explain vocabulary and reading to Korean students. I recommend if you wish to teach English, understand your surrounding and culture. It could really help with connecting with your students.
What degree do you have to become a high school English teacher?
That depends on each country and state. It also depends of the level you want to teach. Teaching English abroad as a second language requires sometimes less qualifications than teaching English language in an English speaking country.

You should easily be able to get a job teaching English. Every school has their own set of guidelines and requirements, but it wouldn't hurt to try.

Do you need a teaching degree to teach?
You can teach anybody anything you know. But to be a teacher in a school, most school systems will require a teaching certificate. You do not need a teaching degree in order to teach in a school. You only need a teaching certification, which you can get without having any sort of degree in teaching. Teaching in colleges and universities seldom require a teaching certificate, but they usually want a 'terminal degree' in the field that is being taught, such as a Medical Degree or a PhD or a Law Degree.
How do i get an English teaching job eventhough i am not a certified teacher?
It depends on where you are planning to teach, and what kind of school it would be in. Also, it could depend on whether you are planning to teach English to speakers of English (as teachihng literature, diction, writing skills, etc.) or teaching English as a second language. Some schools in some countries might hire you just because y0ou speak English; but these are usually not high-paying teaching jobs. If you are already in the country, it might make sense, but if you would have to travel there to teach, the transportation might cost more than you would earn.

How much salary can one expect if one is a native speaker of English and goes to teach English in Korea?

Why do You Want to Teach English?
Teaching English can take a variety of forms. You can teach in public or private schools, tutor, or teach at the university level. You might teach English to non-native English speakers, or you might teach literature, composition or language arts courses. The focus of your teaching will determine the type of education you need.Training for Lower Grade LevelsIf you want to teach public or private school, you can earn a bachelor's degree in English. You can also earn an education degree and seek an endorsement from your state in English. If you have a bachelor's degree in English or an English-related subject, you can also seek alternative licensure from your state to teach in public schools. Some private schools also require having a state teaching license to teach English.Teaching CollegeIf you want to teach literature and composition at the college level, you will need to earn at least a Master's degree in English or an English-related subject. Community colleges hire English teachers with at least a Master's degree. However, if you want to teach at the university level, you will likely need at least a Ph.D. to compete with other job applicants. Many universities also require applicants to have at least a doctorate to be considered for any English teaching positions.Teaching English as a LanguageIf you want to teach English as a second or foreign language, you have several options. If you want to teach overseas, having a bachelor's degree in any subject may do, as long as you speak English as your first language. Some volunteer programs don't care whether you have a degree. Generally, to teach overseas or online you will need at least a 40-hour certificate in teaching English as a foreign/second language. Some tutoring companies require more than 40 hours of training. Experience teaching overseas may also suffice.If you want to teach in adult education, college, or public schools, you will need other credentials. Public school teachers must have a state license and endorsement in ESL. College teachers typically need at least a master's degree in linguistics or Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages.
