There are programs called Alternative Certificate Programs available for non-education majors to pursue a teaching credential.  The requirements for teaching vary state to state, so start with the Department of Education website in your state for more information.  Good luck!

I was a para for 20 years in the school district, then 18 years into it I decided to go to school and become a teacher myself.  Long range plan is to pursue a Master's in library media.  Working with kids is about as close to heaven as you can get on Earth.  Love it.\n\nDon't worry about not being so great in math right now. Sometimes it will just "click" later!  I stunk in math in hs, and believed it when i was told I couldn't do what I wanted to do in life.  Many years later, math is just fine.  Go for what your passions are and what gives you joy and fulfillment.  Everything else is just frosting.

You could get a job as a teacher.  People who teach in some inner city schools or schools on Native American reservations can have a portion of their student loan debt forgiven.  Normally, you would be obligated to teach for 2 or 3 years in an underserved school.  Since you have a B.S. in computer science, you could easily teach math at a high school.\n\nIs the work challenging?  Yes, but it's also a rewarding experience because you will be helping those who need help most.  Try asking your alma mater's career services department or a big-city school district for more info.

The best place to look is your state's curriculum/content standards.  Each state chooses their own curriculum requirements for each grade level.  \n\nGo to your state's Dept. of Education and find the link. \n\nOtherwise, there are national councils that put out suggestions as well.  NCTM is the math council -- they have created a list that many states use as a guideline

In the US, Trig is normally considered as a high school level course, however, it is not a required course to graduate. I believe Algebra is the highest of the high school math courses that are required for graduation, although some schools may still only require Geometry.\nIn the US the typical sequence for math courses is Pre-Algebra, Geometry, Algebra, Trigonometry and then Calculus (which is usually taken at the high school level as Pre-Calculus, but may also be taken as full "AP" Calculus, where the "AP" stands for "Advanced Placement" and means that the student can get University-level credit for that course when they go to College).

If you mean if it is one of the post secondary qualifications as in teritiary, then yes, but one has to have a bachelor's first.

Your question is difficult to answer because each state within the United States has different accreditation requirements for its teachers. You must have certification from the state. If you already have a bachelor's degree you can apply for alternative certification and after completing the course you can start your career. Of course, if you have your master's degree or more you can try teaching at the collegiate level by applying at different universities. Here is a site I think might be useful to you. Good luck!

nothing with my degree.  Dont want to be negative if you are looking toward math but, from experience you have to do more that a BS if you want to go math.  Most people right now want a specialty and just math isnt enough.  If you dont want to teach I would recomend either staying in school for at least masters or doing another major along with math.  It looks good to have math but its tough to get started with just that.  If you want to teach you are golden.  They are hurting bad for math teachers now and you could just about get in anywhere.  I did that for a while but wasnt my cup of tea.

1) What is your teaching philosophy?\n\n2) How much teaching experience do you have? (Already answered in your application...but they ask anyway) \n\n3) How do you deal with unmotivated students?\n\n4) How do you handle discipline?\n\nDon't be surprised if you are asked several other questions that are already answered in either your application, transcripts, resume, or cover letter. Administrators and department chairs are notoriously lazy and I doubt they read entire applications. They ask you a bunch of redundant questions because they are so unprepared.\n\nIf you are applying for a mathematics position in a run-of-the-mill junior high or high school, they will ask if you mind teaching the lower level courses (i.e. the worst possible class). Be honest with yourself.\n\nAfter completing my BS in mathematics, I applied and got a position in one of the "best" high schools in my area. I was the only math teacher with a degree in math!! The whole experience was very eye opening. About half of the so-called honors students were marginal at best. I mean, come on, a calculus student should already know how to graph a straight line or how to add fractions!!\n\nIf you are/were a strong mathematics student, then do yourself a favor and go to graduate school while everything is fresh. Skip the public school charade and work at a college. The atmosphere is so much better in every possible sense. But, that is just my honest opinion.

If you are in the UK there are several different routes.\n\n1. Do a degree in food technology or design technology specialising in food.  After degree you can go one of two ways...\n1a. If over 23 (I think, might be 25 but I'm fairly sure its 23) you can do a Graduate Teacher Programme which basically involves working and getting paid as a teacher in a real school under supervision of a qualified teacher and a university which supervises the course.  You complete assignments and it can be completed in a very short amount of time.\n1b.  At any age, do a PGCE at a university.  The governement offers a lot of incentives such as a grant.  You are in uni most of the time, but have placements in schools.\n\nA second route is to do an education degree with qualifieds teaching status (QTS) , this takes 3 to 4 years and means you don't need to do a post graduate degree.

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.
