Hello :) so im a senior in high school and i want to become a high school history teacher......?

Question

how long do i have to go 2 college?

Answer 1

Four years. There are different requirements in different states for the exact classes you'd take for certification. For example, in Kansas you are actually a "social studies" teacher and not a "history" teacher. I rather dislike that as I feel you have too wide a curriculum in college and don't get enough in depth history.

Generally speaking however, you would come out with a degree in secondary education.

Answer 2

4 years

Answer 3

Depends on where you want to teach.  I would assume that if you wanted to teach at a lower-tier high school, you could start after you get your bachelor's (4yrs)  If you want to teach at a higher-tier high school, you probably should try to get your master's if financially possible (~6yrs).  Once you get your job, at a decent school, you'll be expected to continue taking classes.

and why did you put this in the study abroad category?

Answer 4

Too long for someone of your intelligence :(
