Bonjour tout le monde,

I would like to be a French teacher in an elementary school in USA (especially California) and I am looking for people who could give me more information about what diplomas you need. I obtained a Bachelor Degree in France and I am currently working as a French Language assistant in Australia in a primary and secondary school. Last year I was also working as a French Language assistant but in England in 3 different primary schools. To summarize I have got a Bachelor Degree and 2 years work experience.

PLEASE IF YOU HAVE ANY ADVICE ON WHAT I SHOULD DO AND THE STEPS I SHOULD FOLLOW!! Or maybe you could tell me what you've done!

Merci Beaucoup.

Cecile
Jarod HM Sorry for the extra slow reply. In the US, and especially CA, you will probably need to go a degree in elementary education that focuses on what we call FLES (Foreign Language in Elementary Schools) or bilingual education. Without any coursework in education, I can't even see a private school in the US hiring your for the elementary level.

Cecile English Language, Literature and Civilisation Degree (French diploma). I did not take childhood development classes because in France you take these classes doing a Master Degree (that I did not do). I wanted to avoid further studies in France and directly acquire American diplomas or equivalence.
