Well, since middle encompasses grades 6-8, you need to get a
K-12, or you are severely limiting yourself by only being
able to teach one grade at the school. Since you don't have
teacher certification, you may want to start out as a sub to
see if the job is really for you. You would probably have
more luck with a special ed certification, since those are
about the only openings around. Spanish would help with the
ESL students.
