I am currently a senior in college majoring in comparative religions. I was initially going to go on to grad school for psychology in order to become a school psychologist eventually but lately I have been thinking about teaching. Since it is too late now to change my major (I'm graduating in a semester), how would I go about becoming an elementary or middle school teacher in California if I have a BA in something other than teaching? Also, is it any different to become a teacher in a Catholic or private school? I am open to public or private, really, I just would like to know how to go about this. I am willing to do whatever more school is necessary for it, although ideally I would like to work sooner rather than later if there is a way of expediting the process and not having to go through an extensive amount of extra school for this. I'm a little burnt out on college right now and would like to get into the working world, but if it is necessary I would definitely do more school.
