If you are a physician looking for a teaching position, there are several options open to you, including college, graduate school and a professional school teaching positions. Teaching jobs in elementary through high school usually require an education degree and a teaching license, which takes several years of additional schooling, even if you already have an MD or a DO.
Teaching is a joy for some and a drag for others. It is often a suitable fit for doctors who are good at interacting with students and peers. But teaching is not usually the right choice for doctors who want to escape from patient care, and students deserve to be taught by professors who enjoy teaching. It takes time and energy to find a teaching position, and doctors who are not genuinely interested in teaching may find the time involved in searching for a teaching job discouraging. If you consider teaching a desirable option, there are some useful tips to consider first.

Dr. Bock, You can contact local universities and community colleges Anatomy and Biology departments to let them know that you are looking for a position. Consider making a CV that highlights your teaching experience so you can send it when you apply.

I’m an international medical graduate not willing to do clinical. I’m doing a MPH in John Hopkins. Apart from public health practice, how can I be a faculty- assistant/associate professor in USA medical schools/universities?
