    Re: I majored in history, but want to teach English
    Posted by: Jarod HM on 10/23/09

    The MA DESE website does not mention any specific course
    requirements for the 8-12 Secondary English Preliminary
    certificate only requires you to have a Bachelor's degree and
    passing scores of the MTEL tests. You may only need the
    information for when you seek through initial certification.

    I hope someone how has gotten prelim cert in this area can
    explain the process.
