You may want to search online for programs that will allow you to teach English in Germany (like, conversation English to younger students) just to get your foot in the door.  For many of these programs you don't need certificaiton.  Then, as you teach uncertified to young students, you're in Germany with a staff of certified instructors and you can find out and get help from them.  Worth a shot?  Good luck.

German university websites have english pages for applicants. They explain the full process. You might have to contact the university to check if your degree is compatible, it (the paper) might need to be translated. No worry, the secretary office will answer emails in english.\nExample:\nhttp://www.lmu.de/conman/index.cfm?path=235 (University in Munich)\nhttp://www.fu-berlin.de/en/studienbewerber/index.html (University in Berlin)

First you will most probably need a bachelor in either german or history [if you do not have one already].  Most colleges and universities [at least here in Canada] have some online/distance options for courses, and if you are a few years apart from completing your degree/diploma, you may want to take some "freshing-up" courses.  \n\nHistory is probably more popular of a choice as all high schools will have that subject- german is not given at all high schools [depending where you are of course], so I would check first with the schools in your area if there is any demand or need for a teacher.  \n\nIn order to teach in most schools, you are required to have an education degree.  The degree program for high school is more subject specific than elementary, which tends to be generalist.  The High School Teacher Education program is usually about a year long and should include a practicum in which you would be assigned a school to teach at and a teacher to mentor you.  Different colleges and universities have different options in their program, so you would probably want to contact ones in your area to see what kind of schedule and options they offer.  Some may have online courses you can take, while others will insist on on-campus learning.\n\nAfter completing and graduating, you should be eligible to apply for the teaching license/certification for your state/province/country.\n\nAfter that, the most logical step would to become a substitute teacher, after which you would be able to apply for a full time position.\n\nOf course I would suggest first that you contact a history or german high school teacher in your area and ask if you can observe/volunteer in their classroom so you can see if teaching is something that you want to do.  Since you are a stay at home mom, you may also try tutoring students if possible to see how you like it.\n\nHope that helps, and good luck!! :)

The Goethe-Institut (named after the most famous author/poet in German history, as Shakespeare is to England) offers classes in 80 different countries in the German language!  It might be just what you are looking for!  Hope this help!\n\nHere's a link to the Goethe-Institut and its locations:\nhttp://www.goethe.de/dll/kur/wwt/enindex.htm

Great question!  I asked myself that when I first travelled there and am happy to say that there are many opportunities.\n\nI don't know how much time you will be spending in Germany, but if you have the time, the best way would be to enroll in a German language course:\n\n               1.  Volkshochshule\n               2.  Akademisches Auslandsamt (at the local University\n               3.  Hire an instructor\n\nBut, if you want to save some money and would like to meet people at the same time, try a Language Exchange (Austausch) where you give an English lesson for an hour and receive a German lesson in return.\n\nAnother option, which I wouldn't recommend if you are a youngish female, is to initiate a conversation with a single elderly person in a small but public cafe.  If you choose to do that, you need to look the part: dress professionally, hair brushed, maybe a language book under your arm, etc.  Otherwise you may project the wrong impression.\n\nThe German people are very understanding and helpful.  Meet them halfway and you'll be pleasantly rewarded.\n\nHave fun.

You will need to install the German dictionary on your computer, and do a spell check, looking just at the German section/words. Then switch back to English and do a spell check just looking at the English section/words.

There exists online a plethera of sources to help you on such an endevour.\nMy personal favorite sites are:\n\nDeutsche Welle (German World) - www.dw-world.de\n\nGoethe Institut - http://www.goethe.de/enindex.htm\n\nExplore both sites, they contain materials for letting one become accustomed to the language.  Particularly on Deutsche Welle, look for 'German Courses' on the left margin.  It holds a link with news reports and other media which are spoken in slow, clear, enunciated German, perfect for a beginner.\n\nAs far as the Grammer, I would suggest buying a book or two; or if you have any friends who know german, ask them.

first start with a direct method in an English-speaking country, then study for Cambridge First Certificate or IELTS. After that, study for the Cambridge Advanced & Cambridge Proficiency exams.  You should be fluent within 3 years.\n\nAlso, make English friends, live and work with English-speakers. Get a good grammar book and a dictionary and carry them with you wherever you go.\n\nIf you're a complete beginner, start with books in your own language that introduce you to English and then move on to books that are only in English.\n\n(I hope you know enough English to be able to understand all this ;-)

Every state has their own requirements for getting a teaching certificate.  The most common method is through a bachelor's degree from an accredited university.  That is the most widely accepted requirement for being hired by most school districts as well.\n\nSome states have alternative programs for getting a certificate.  Areas with teacher shortages will have more options.  Usually these alternative programs are meant to help out the districts with the biggest teacher shortage problems (which are often the least desireable school districts to work in).  \n\nFor more information, try searching for your state's department of education web page.  They will describe the process through something like "routes to liscensing," or "alternative credentialing," or some similar phrasing.\n\nEven with alternative options, the most thorough and professional way to get a certificate is through college.  That will also be how most districts base your sallary -- the number of credits you have.  College is the best option -- try it -- you may really like it!

Well, to teach in France you need to take and pass an exam called the CAPES.\n\nBut sometimes you can find a job as a lectrice for instance in some Universities, but it's not a really safe job, as the French system makes any teacher employed by the Government and you need to pass this "concours"...\n\nAlthough I knew some teachers in my University who were teaching English and were English and didn't have the CAPES.\nIt's easier if you have passed a thesis in your country....\n\nAnyway, good luck for the administraive papers!!\nAnd don't hope too much about Paris, you should consider cities that are an hour ago by train, it's quite near, and just as good.\nIf you're in Paris suburb, most of the time it would take you an hour anyway to get to Paris.

try www.fldoe.com.   on that website, look at the left side and click on educators.  \n\nyou didn't say what you have your bachelors in but in order to get your teaching certificate in Florida, you need to pass the general knowledge test, the professional knowledge exam, and the subject area exam.  The subject area exam is a test you take that proves you know what you are teaching.  for example, there is the K-6 test that any elementary teacher needs to pass.  \n\nbefore any principal will give an interview, you need to have passed the subject area exam.  They will  give you a year to complete the other two exams.\n\nGood luck and try not to become frustrated.  I went through the process and lived to tell about it!  :)

It depends on the qualifications wanted by the school where you want to teach.\n\nSome schools in non-English-speaking countries don't require special qualifications.  These schools often just hire native speakers as teachers.  These schools are also not very reputable.  In particular, make sure that you never give them your passport!  Some schools actually hold their teachers' passports as a way to try to keep them longer.\n\nOther, more reputable programs will require you to have a special certification for teaching English, like a master's degree in TESOL/TESL/TEFL or a TESOL certificate.  Check with your university's department of linguistics or department of education to see what kinds of qualifications they offer.  For example, my university offers a TESOL certificate program of about a year of coursework, which can be done in conjunction with a bachelor's or master's degree.\n\nIn addition, for non-native speakers, they might have a requirement to verify your proficiency in English, like a TOEFL score.
