I'm not sure what it's like where you live, but here in CA a degree in anything and a teaching cert is enough. You do NOT have to have a BA in education to become a teacher. As a matter of fact, it's not even always suggested. Not a single teacher that I know personally has a BA in education. They either have it in something entirely unrelated (like a business degree, decided to go back later to become a teacher) or a subject specific degree like English, Math, Science, etc.
If I was going to hire an English teacher for instance, I would much rather get someone who has a degree in English than someone who has a degree in Education. Same with most subjects.
Most schools here don't care at all what your degree is in, they really care whether you're a good teacher or not. A degree can't make you that.
