These days, with the need for teachers especially male teachers increasing, you still MUST have a teaching license or be eligible for an alternative teaching license. Alternative methods are more commonplace in "high-need" subjects such as math and/or science and are more progressive in metro areas. The days of an undergraduate degree not used, "Well, at least you can teach...", are long gone. If you plan to teach primary or special education, you have to go to college SPECIFICALLY for that purpose. In my case, I was hired for a contract or interim position teaching French in Memphis, TN. Because I speak and study Spanish, I was offered the job. That scenario is unheard of, so do not expect those cases often if ever. "No Child Left Behind" is a government mandate that requires teachers to have completed an arduous and expensive certification process with formal education study, standardized tests like the Praxis series, and a content specialization. In the old days, anyone with a college degree could teach, not so anymore. For those considering teaching, get started NOW. The process is long and you must play the tenuous "ball game" required by the Feds. Here is some advice for would-be teachers. If you are in it for the money, it takes higher degrees and YEARS of experience within the same state for lucrative future salaries. If you plan on moving around the country, you will lose "step" bonuses which are automatic, annual raises to compete with inflation and time served. If you an adult like me changing or adding career leverage, patience and proactivity are essential. Get accepted into the right, ACCREDITED school. DO NOT spend a fortune! A degree for teaching purposes are of equal weight. Find inexpensive colleges or, better yet, get someone else to pay for it. In my case, Memphis City Schools have frozen tuition and Praxis testing reimbursements for the 08-09 school year. So, I am out-of-pocket for my Spanish and TEP (Teacher Education Program) until the district retracts the freeze...God willing. Finally, I will say this. Teaching is one of the most admirable professions. In time, teachers will make more money. However, given the economic pitfalls more common with this country's inability to properly govern capitalism, we will never be the highly paid demi-gods of other industries. Remember, public education does not make money for anyone initially, and neither will we as professors of it.

She or he needs to feel piano and music. I am pianist so I know.
Yes, to get the correct education and experience, they need to go to college/ university and get their A levels.
Every teacher needs to have unexpired certification in order to teach. Every state requires that a teacher have certification regardless of their level of experience.
