How would I go about becoming a private high school teacher?

The very term private indicates that a school does not fall under specific strictures established by a state or governmental entity, hence, you will find that each school is very different in what they expect.  That said, most schools are now requiring that private school teachers be certified in the state in which the school is located as an indicator of readiness to teach.  In addition to this, most private high school expect that a teacher will have at least a bachelor major or a master's degree in the field they were expecting to teach, academic excellence.

Yes, I can make a couple of recommendations--links below. Be sure, though, that if you want to teach in a public school that you get a degree from a college or school that is accredited by both a regional accrediting agency (such as the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools) and by the state department of education or public instruction in the state in which it is located. That will allow you to get a teaching license more efficently.\n\nOne option to consider is to go to your local community college for your first two years of schooling. You can get your courses at convenient times and they will be accepted at most all four year colleges.\n\nNote that there are any number of colleges offering distance education degrees (University of Phoenix, Capella University, Walden University) that are accredited, but they are also much more expensive. I didn't include them, but you can look them up online if you wish.\n\nBest of luck to you!

You will need four years of college. It would be wonderful it you would get your Master's degree too, however. You would position yourself for better jobs in teaching! That is wonderful that you are going to teach!

Okay, just get through this.  Do what you have to do to get the marks you need to get your credential.  Use what you've observed with your master teacher to decide what not to do.  Try to learn some techniques that you will want to use, or at least modify.  It takes a number of years to find the 'happy medium' between letting the students run over you and being a martinet.  Good luck.\n(30 + years teaching middle school, female and working every day and year on that happy medium)

Go to college first (but I'm sure you already knew that). After you graduate, you will need to get a teaching license in NY. The college you attend will have more information on how to get licensed and to get a job in the place that you want. Also, check out http://www.nysed.gov/.

You need to go to a 4 year university and major in elementary education.  If your high school has a teacher academy for students, you could enroll in that.  That would give you a head start, and may count towards some of your college classes.

yep start with your state department of education or a counselor at your local school.

The first thing you need to do is get enrolled in a teacher training program at a local university or college. Also, you  could look of the Department of Education online. It would be easy to find by doing a search. For example, if you wanted to teach in Ohio, you would do a search for Ohio's Department of Education website.

The best way to find out is probably by asking your school counsellor. Maintain a high GPA and if possible, be active in school by joining clubs and what-not. Build relationship with teachers (make sure they know you) so that they could write recommendation letters for you when the time comes.

I wouldn't advise going for that Masters if you want to teach in High School ... you'll be too expensive to hire (they prefer to hire B.A. students)\n\nIf you want to teach H.S., get certified in your state and you can probably get a job, although I have heard that the market has a glut of history teachers.\n\nIf you want to teach at the college level, get a Ph.D. or masters (community college). Many programs may offer you a teaching assistantship to support you towards that end

Your desire to become a teacher is a difficult career choice in todays world. Sadly there is not much one can do to hold a public school accountable. With our countrys laws the way they are. It is next to impossible to keep order in a class , to exert authority and control and God forbid if you mention disipline. with our teachers hands tied how can any one expect them to teach and train our countrys children. Do you want to be held accountable over that which you have no control???  If you truly desire to make a difference in a childs life go private . The best to you in your career. PS. please forgive my spelling I could not read or write when I graduated from Cotulla High School in Cotulla Texas class of 1990. I was one of the undisiplined kids who did not want to be there . even then there was not much they could do about it. It is worse today. I pulled my kids out of public and went private .They have a awesome teacher who has taught them to read and write way beyond thier class years. Me I can read and write english now , for my wife refused to give up on me. Oh yes the teacher above should have let my wife teach him to read and spell.That might be another problem with our kids.

The type of degree you need to be a certified teacher in special education will depend on your state.  Most states require a four year bachelor's degree in special education, specifically (not just elementary or secondary ed).  \n\nYou will also likely have to pass the PRAXIS exam to become certified in your state.  \n\nThe easiest way to get this information is to contact a local teaching college in your area.  They will be able to give you specific information on what is needed. \n\nAlso, as an aside, due to No Child Left Behind, you may have to be considered "highly qualified" in your subject area.  That is, if you want to teach special education at a secondary level, you may also have to possess a degree or pass a test in all of the subject areas you teach, i.e. reading, math, literature, etc.  This is still up in the air, but if you are serious about getting into special education it's worth looking into.

First you should research and decide which state you would like to teach in.  Once you have decided that next chose the county you like the most.  Then google or should I say Yahoo the city's name and school disctricts.  The local school discricts should come up and you pick which on you like.  Next, click on Human resources on the disctrict page.  This will usually lead you to phone numbers of who to call with questions and available employment and qualifications.  In most of the states you are required to have a bachelors or even masters in sped.  I would just use the internet to browse different states and requirements.  \nbest of luck
