[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How can you become a teacher these days?  No one wants to pay for college to be a teacher but I think there are people interested. They should incentivize going into the field. [/quote]

Are you suggesting opening up teaching to people without college degrees?

I teach college-level classes at the high school level. [/quote]

DP but I think k-6 teaching programs can be possible with a 4 year degree. Education degrees aren’t even all education classes. [/quote]

I meant without a 4 year degree.

Meaning cut out the extra classes and make it a 2 year program. [/quote]

Most of us in the profession would likely recommend going the other direction, requiring masters degrees and continuing education.

This job takes a multitude of skills and a lot of content knowledge. Even though a K-6 teacher may be responsible for lower-level math, science, and language arts instruction, they need to be able to effectively communicate and teach those subjects. It’s one thing to know the information yourself, it’s another beast entirely to be able to successfully transfer the knowledge to others. There’s also a good deal of data collection and analysis, which is a part of the job that increases every year.
