Can a person become high school teacher with sociology degree?
Yes, a person with a sociology degree can become a high school teacher, but it will require further education and certification. A sociology degree provides a strong foundation in social science, but it's not a teaching credential. To teach high school, they'll need to complete a teacher preparation program (often a master's degree or additional coursework) and obtain the necessary state teaching license or certification. The specific requirements vary by state and sometimes even by school district. The teacher preparation program will cover teaching methodologies, classroom management, and curriculum development specific to secondary education. They might be able to teach sociology directly, or possibly other social studies subjects depending on their additional coursework and certification.
