How Do I Become a Kindergarten Teacher? Kindergarten teachers serve a unique role in children's education, since they provide the first formal instruction most kids receive and thus set a precedent for the rest of their school years. A kindergarten teacher introduces children to language, math, science, and social studies, instructing them in phonics, numbers, letter recognition, science, and nature through various methods that may involve playing games, showing films, or using computers, music, books, or art.
While childhood development classes are not part of a mandatory curriculum, you may find them useful to better understand how to handle such young kids. You should expect to take professional education courses, most likely including:- Philosophy of education
- Psychology of learning
- Teaching methods
Other courses prepare you to teach the variety of subjects a kindergarten teacher covers, such as:- Art
- Literature
- Mathematics
- Music
- Physical science
- Social science
Finally, to become a kindergarten teacher, you must earn a bachelor's degree, complete an approved teacher training program, and obtain a license. Specific licensing requirements vary among the states.
Why Become a Kindergarten Teacher? Unlike other teachers, you may have the option to work part-time if you so desire. All-day kindergartens have grown increasingly common in most school districts, but some kindergarten teachers have separate morning and afternoon kindergarten classes. Some school districts may allow you to teach one or the other instead of both, but you should check schools in your area first to be sure.
