Music Teacher Jobs
Most schools across the US continue to provide students with an enriching music program. Elementary-level students explore the basic principles and theories and learn to enjoy music. Middle grades begin learning how to play instruments and sing choral music. The reach of music in the classroom is wide. Elementary, middle school and high school classrooms across the US need qualified music teachers.
Each state sets its own benchmarks for music education and each grade level covers key concepts in music. Music helps lay the foundation of a well-rounded educational experience for students across all levels. Music teachers are needed across the US from Pennsylvania to Montana, Oklahoma to Ohio.
Music Teacher Certifications and Qualifications
Qualifications for music teachers vary across the states and they are different depending on what grade level you teach. Once you are certified to teach at the elementary level you can teach music to students in the elementary grades in most states. However, to teach music at the junior high and high school levels you will need a degree in music as well as a secondary education endorsement. If your bachelor’s degree is in Music Education, the degree program will include teaching methodologies and a teacher prep program.
Let us help you find a job teaching music. We keep a list of the current music teacher openings across the US. Schools are in need of qualified music teachers for students in elementary, middle school, and high school. We can help you find a job as a music teacher any state in the US.
