Teachers must have proper qualifications or mastery of their field. Graduates should have at least a bachelor’s degree in the area they will be teaching. Teachers must have a qualification that is at a higher level than the group they are instructing. In Universities, teachers usually have a doctorate or masters, in secondary institutions a first degree upwards.
