Teaching Question?

[greekmanuk81]

I would like to teach art in primary or Secondary school I have 6 GCSE's. I have BTEC ND in graphic design, but no degrees. My question is what degree or degrees do I need and also my main issue is that I can't draw but obviously I am good at Graphics and design?

you are going to have to go back and get a BA/BS in education and do some type of teacher training...look at your state ed web site...

In some states you may be able to teach on a provisionary or probational certificate. However, you must have a 4 year degree and a teaching certificate in the field for which you are applying if you want a permanent job. You really need to talk someone in Personnel at the District Office for your school district. You can also look on your state's website. Because of a teacher shortage in some states, the rules may be different.

Art sounds like an interesting major. I love art and always taught it in kindergarten. We had an art project for every unit of study.
