Education required:
Education required for the middle school teacher usually requires the obtainment of a bachelors degree in a teacher education program followed by obtaining a teaching license. However many states now allow alternative routes in terms of educational preparation to be a teacher. For example, some states allow you to obtain a teaching license even though your bachelors degree may come from a non-teacher education program. In any case, you need to have at least a bachelor’s degree if you want to be a middle school teacher. Private school teachers do not need to be licensed but require a bachelors degree.
All public schools in the 50 states and District of Colombia require a teaching license. To obtain a teaching license, you need to take an exam which is specific for the middle school teacher. Almost all States require applicants for a teacher’s license to display basic skills, such as reading and writing, and teaching. Almost all also require teachers to exhibit proficiency in their subject.
For more information about education required for the middle school teacher in the United States go to Occupational Outlook Handbook provided by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Job outlook:
Employment for the middle school teacher is expected to grow at an average rate relative to other occupations during the 2006 to 2016 time frame. This growth is expected to be at around 12%. This is average growth, but it should also be noted that because teaching is such a large occupation, 479,000 new teaching jobs are expected during this time frame. This is for all teachers at the preschool, kindergarten, elementary, middle, and secondary level. Therefore, it can be concluded that also at the middle school level, many new teaching jobs should be expected across the United States.

Author: Jess Onley
If you are looking for the best way to write a resume for teachers, you are certain to find several resources. There is lots of advice instructing you on how to construct your resume, and the things you should do. But what about the things you shouldn’t do? It is often misconceived that administrators briefly glance at your resume, before selecting a candidate. When in reality, they really go all the way through them.
Knowing exactly what administrators look for in a bad resume for teachers and avoiding them, is the best way to separate your work from the rest. The following are things to avoid when constructing your teacher resume.
Top 5 Resume Mistakes Every Candidate Should Avoid

2. Leaving major gaps in your employment history. Sometimes leaving gaps in your employment history can be a negative when writing a resume for teachers. It can leave an administrator wondering about your work ethic, or tell the district that you could potentially be a troublesome hire. Even if it is for a perfectly acceptable reason, be prepared to answer questions about gaps, if you have any. Go here to read this entire article
