The traditional route to becoming a public school teacher involves completing a bachelor's degree from a teacher education program and then obtaining a license. However, most States now offer alternative routes to licensure for those who have a college degree in other fields. Private school teachers do not have to be licensed but still need a bachelor's degree. A bachelor's degree may not be needed by preschool teachers and vocational education teachers, who need experience in their field rather than a specific degree. Education and training. Traditional education programs for kindergarten and elementary school teachers include courses designed specifically for those preparing to teach. These courses include mathematics, physical science, social science, music, art, and literature, as well as prescribed professional education courses, such as philosophy of education, psychology of learning, and teaching methods. Aspiring secondary school teachers most often major in the subject they plan to teach while also taking a program of study in teacher preparation. Many 4-year colleges require students to wait until their sophomore year before applying for admission to teacher education programs. To maintain their accreditation, teacher education programs are now required to include classes in the use of computers and other technologies. Most programs require students to perform a student-teaching internship. Teacher education programs are accredited by the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education and the Teacher Education Accreditation Council. Graduation from an accredited program is not necessary to become a teacher, but it may make fulfilling licensure requirements easier. Many States now offer professional development schools, which are partnerships between universities and elementary or secondary schools. Professional development schools merge theory with practice and allow the student to experience a year of teaching firsthand, under professional guidance. Students enter these 1-year programs after completion of their bachelor's degree. Licensure and certification. All 50 States and the District of Columbia require public school teachers to be licensed. Licensure is not required for teachers in most private schools. Usually licensure is granted by the State Board of Education or a licensure advisory committee. Teachers may be licensed to teach the early childhood grades (usually preschool through grade 3); the elementary grades (grades 1 through 6 or 8); the middle grades (grades 5 through 8); a secondary-education subject area (usually grades 7 through 12); or a special subject, such as reading or music (usually grades kindergarten through 12). Requirements for regular licenses to teach kindergarten through grade 12 vary by State. However, all States require general education teachers to have a bachelor's degree and to have completed an approved teacher training program with a prescribed number of subject and education credits, as well as supervised practice teaching. Some States also require technology training and the attainment of a minimum grade point average. A number of States require that teachers obtain a master's degree in education within a specified period after they begin teaching. Almost all States require applicants for a teacher's license to be tested for competency in basic skills, such as reading and writing, and in teaching. Almost all also require teachers to exhibit proficiency in their subject. Many school systems are presently moving toward implementing performance-based systems for licensure, which usually require teachers to demonstrate satisfactory teaching performance over an extended period in order to obtain a provisional license, in addition to passing an examination in their subject. Most States require teachers to complete a minimum number of hours of continuing education to renew their license. Many States have reciprocity agreements that make it easier for teachers licensed in one State to become licensed in another. Licensing requirements for preschool teachers also vary by State. Requirements for public preschool teachers are generally more stringent than those for private preschool teachers. Some States require a bachelor's degree in early childhood education, while others require an associate's degree, and still others require certification by a nationally recognized authority. The Child Development Associate (CDA) credential, the most common type of certification, requires a mix of classroom training and experience working with children, along with an independent assessment of the teacher's competence. Nearly all States now also offer alternative licensure programs for teachers who have a bachelor's degree in the subject they will teach, but who lack the necessary education courses required for a regular license. Many of these alternative licensure programs are designed to ease shortages of teachers of certain subjects, such as mathematics and science. Other programs provide teachers for urban and rural schools that have difficulty filling positions with teachers from traditional licensure programs. Alternative licensure programs are intended to attract people into teaching who do not fulfill traditional licensing standards, including recent college graduates who did not complete education programs and those changing from another career to teaching. In some programs, individuals begin teaching quickly under provisional licensure under the close supervision of experienced educators while taking education courses outside school hours. If they progress satisfactorily, they receive regular licensure after working for 1 or 2 years. In other programs, college graduates who do not meet licensure requirements take only those courses that they lack and then become licensed. This approach may take 1 or 2 semesters of full-time study. The coursework for alternative certification programs often leads to a master's degree. In extreme circumstances, when schools cannot attract enough qualified teachers to fill positions, States may issue emergency licenses to individuals who do not meet the requirements for a regular license that let them begin teaching immediately. In many States, vocational teachers have many of the same licensure requirements as other teachers. However, knowledge and experience in a particular field are important, so some States will license vocational education teachers without a bachelor's degree, provided they can demonstrate expertise in their field. A minimum number of hours in education courses may also be required. Private schools are generally exempt from meeting State licensing standards. For secondary school teacher jobs, they prefer candidates who have a bachelor's degree in the subject they intend to teach, or in childhood education for elementary school teachers. They seek candidates among recent college graduates as well as from those who have established careers in other fields. Other qualifications. In addition to being knowledgeable about the subjects they teach, teachers must have the ability to communicate, inspire trust and confidence, and motivate students, as well as understand the students' educational and emotional needs. Teachers must be able to recognize and respond to individual and cultural differences in students and employ different teaching methods that will result in higher student achievement. They should be organized, dependable, patient, and creative. Teachers also must be able to work cooperatively and communicate effectively with other teachers, support staff, parents, and members of the community. Private schools associated with religious institutions also desire candidates who share the values that are important to the institution. Additional certifications and advancement. In some cases, teachers of kindergarten through high school may attain professional certification in order to demonstrate competency beyond that required for a license. The National Board for Professional Teaching Standards offers a voluntary national certification. To become nationally certified, experienced teachers must prove their aptitude by compiling a portfolio showing their work in the classroom and by passing a written assessment and evaluation of their teaching knowledge. Currently, teachers may become certified in a variety of areas, on the basis of the age of the students and, in some cases, the subject taught. For example, teachers may obtain a certificate for teaching English language arts to early adolescents (aged 11 to 15), or they may become certified as early childhood generalists. All States recognize national certification, and many States and school districts provide special benefits to teachers who earn certification. Benefits typically include higher salaries and reimbursement for continuing education and certification fees. In addition, many States allow nationally certified teachers to carry a license from one State to another. With additional preparation, teachers may move into such positions as school librarians, reading specialists, instructional coordinators, or guidance counselors. Teachers may become administrators or supervisors, although the number of these positions is limited and competition for them can be intense. In some systems, highly qualified, experienced teachers can become senior or mentor teachers, with higher pay and additional responsibilities. They guide and assist less experienced teachers while keeping most of their own teaching responsibilities. Preschool teachers usually work their way up from assistant teacher, to teacher, to lead teacher-who may be responsible for the instruction of several classes-and, finally, to director of the center. Preschool teachers with a bachelor's degree frequently are qualified to teach kindergarten through grade 3 as well. Teaching at these higher grades often results in higher pay.

Job demands differ depending on where you teach,what subject and grade level.

Good teachers typically have good organization skills. They have the ability to work with many different types of people. Patience is also a very good quality.

Teaching elementary school requires a degree that covers all subject areas.

Middle School and High School requires specific content specialization.

You are looking at two parts in this question: How long does it take to complete the requirements to become a teacher, and how long does it take to complete a Physical Education degree? The most basic college degree to become a school teacher is called a Bachelor Degree. It usually takes 4 years to complete a Bachelor's Degree in Education. My sister completed a Bachelor's Degree in Physical Education at Florida State University in about 4 years in 1968. They may have expanded the program for completion of a Bachelor's Degree in Education, or Physical Education, since then. The School of Education has expanded its requirements for teaching P.E. in more recent years. I don't know exactly how long it takes to complete the necessary studies for P.E., because some schools require higher degrees than a Bachelor's in order to teach. They may only require extra courses to study the specific sports their school specializes in. Schools that seem to specialize in tennis, or football, or basketball may require their P.E. teachers to take University-taught classes in these sports, or they may require a Master's Degree in P.E. I have never heard of a secondary school requiring its teachers to obtain a PhD in order to be an entry-level teacher, or even a teacher with many years of experience. Only in Colleges and Universities do they have such lofty requirements. The sensible thing to do is to contact the College or University you are interested in, to learn the requirements for a Bachelor's Degree in Education. Then go the extra step, and contact the school where you want to teach P.E. Ask them what sort of education requirements they have for teaching at that school.

He or she need to know math reading and writing and the CAN NOT have a temper problem.

Well, this rarely happens, however it has happened. I can't truthfully say kids can fall "in love" with a teacher, persay, they may just take a special liking to them, or feel lustful. Because you only know this teacher in one place and in one state of mind, you don't truly know them, therefore it probably isn't true love. However, I'm pretty sure most teachers don't mind it, but if they find out it is unlikely they will confront you.

Certainly not. While dating is not legislated, such conduct would be against school policy and can get them fired on the spot. And be aware that any sexual contact of any type would be illegal. Even if a student is over the age of consent, most places have special clauses that apply to the student-teacher relationship.

Date whoever you want. As long as your with someone who makes you feel comfortable, happy & alive. But be aware of the possibilty that you may be looked upon as someone who has no clue what theyre getting themselvs into. Yes, to some, dating teachers may be awkward cause of the age difference, but oh well. It's the person you like, not everybody else right ? Therefore it shouldn't even be a question. You want it, take it.

A teacher may confiscate personal belongings, particularly if school rules or classroom rules state certain items must not be brought to school. If a student is allowed a particular item but continues to play with the item, distracting him/herself and others from classroom instruction, then the teacher is perfectly within his/her rights to remove that object. * However * the teacher is not permitted to keep the item permanently. Some items should be returned directly to the student's parents and some items should be held in the principal's office for safekeeping. The student whose items have been removed bears the responsibility of courteously negotiating a time when his or her things may be returned.

You don't necessarily need homework every single day, though many classes do give work nearly every day. Math, especially, relies on you being able to work the problems, which means practicing them over and over until you get it down.

Innovation and the maturation of society is dependent on the level of education of its citizens. Your job relies on the amount of education you've received and have achieved in subjects:

Maths can help you out in money in shops (you can become a successful shop accountant, bank accountant etc.)

English helps you with your daily communicating skills (you can become a successful lawyer etc.) English made people writters like JK Rowling, Roald Dhal etc.

Science helps you with your whole life pretty much. When you water plants, make a cup of tea, freezing food, washing hands due to Bacteria etc. (you could become a scientist, doctor, chemist) Science made people like Einstein etc.

Extra languages mean more communication with the people in different countries (transulators) etc.

Even if you don't want a job you need to have some sort of knowledge of the world.

Education can either make you wealthy or poor / famous or the ordinary
