Do I need a certification to teach?
Yes, you generally need a certification to teach, especially in public schools. Certification, often referred to as a teaching credential or license, is a requirement that ensures teachers have the necessary education, skills, and knowledge to effectively educate students.
The process typically involves completing an accredited teacher preparation program, earning a bachelor's degree (at minimum), and passing relevant exams.
Private schools might have different requirements, but most still prefer or require certified teachers.
The specifics can vary by region or country, so it's important to check the requirements in the area where you intend to teach.
