I want to be a German teacher after high school....?

Question

but I didn't take any German language classes and I'm starting my senior year this year.

I've taken French in both 10th and 11th grade and now I realize that I don't like it that much. I prefer German.

so would I still be able to major in German language if I didn't take the course in high school?

I don't even think my high school offers German language

Answer 1

Most people either like languages or they don't.  If you don't like French, I have to wonder if you will really like German.  Having said that, yes, you can major in German in college if you want to (and if you go to a college with a German major).  You would take two years of basic language classes before being able to move on to things like literature classes, but it can be done.

Answer 2

Yes.

Some resources to look at:

p.s.  its okay to change your mind a few times and study a variety of things while you're young (under 20 or so).  after that it helps to identify your strengths and pick one or two to major/minor in.  language learning is a great process and will help you move through life no matter what direction you ultimately go in.  good luck!
