Universities in general require a Masters for undergraduate courses, but the jobs are more difficult to get. If you get a Ph.D., Ed.D. or Psy.D. you should not have a great deal of difficulty.

Good Luck

It might seem obvious, but there are a lot of PhD’s and Master’s degree holders who are complete morons when it comes to computers. And teaching an online course requires a lot more computer literacy than teaching it in person.

But i’m just guessing. Never taught a class before in my life
