Dear Readers,
I have a bit of a problem: I have been teaching EFL in Paris, France for the past two-and-a-half-years, have learned to speak French fluently, but I have no degree in French (BA in English Literature, M.Ed in Postsecondary TESOL), now, I would like to go back to America and be a French teacher in the secondary school system, but I don't know what to do. Even though I don't have a French degree, I speak it, and would like to teach it as I find it more stimulating than EFL, so, do you know, if (I know that regulations vary from state to state) I could teach this subject after passing a certification exam that states that I am fluent rather than getting a whole new BA and a whole new M.Ed? Someone mentioned the private school system, so, maybe that's an option, but I just fear spending six more years acquiring more degrees to teach something I already know and the time and expense that could incur. If you could help I would appreciate it.
Peace out,
K Dog
