How do you become a high school teacher? | Education Reference
Question by anna: How do you become a high school teacher?
I am in cosmetology school right now. Almost finished. My cosmetology school is an adult class in a vocational high school. Every kid in there thinks I am a teacher in there. And I was wondering for a while thinking of becoming a teacher because I kind of like the idea of the school atmosphere. I?m good with kids and I understand them and what they go through. How do you become a teacher? What is the procedure? Do I need an associates or higher degree to become a teacher?

You need a minimum of a bachelor?s in education to become a teacher in every state I have lived/worked in. To achieve Professional status, you also need a masters. I am not sure if vocational schools work differently, but I know to become certified you MUST have a bachelor?s. It doesn?t have to be in education, but you need certain education classes and you have to take a teacher test, usually a Praxis or another state test depending on the state. I would speak to your guidance counselor. You may be able to teach at a beauty school type of setting instead of a high school setting with just a few years of on the job experience in cosmetology. You don?t want to waste teaching talent if you have the touch, there are so few that do!
