I'm in my first year at junior college now, planning on transferring elsewhere.
I'm pretty sure that I'd like to teach high school (either physics or math). My motivation for this is that good teachers are rare, good physics/math teachers are even rarer (and therefore more valuable?). I'm an immensely curious person and have found physics and math to be very enjoyable.
Problem is...I don't really know how this all works. I don't know what majors make me eligible (can a physics major teach math?) or how competitive teaching positions might be. How do I know where to apply for jobs? How easy is it to move to new states and get certifications there?
