I'd be interested in a teaching/education degree, psychology, business administration, management, maybe even history, I just thought communications would have very little math and pretty heavily English/reading focused.  I'm much stronger in English/reading/retention than math.  I'm not against a computer science degree, but those seemed to require more math courses and lots of development courses in C++/Java which are languages I loathe as a PHP/Python dev.  I'd rather have a bachelor's in something else where I have strong skills and get IT certifications for the specific technology I want to teach -- like salesforce or compTIA stuff.

You might consider looking at one of the WGU IT degrees, or their degree in Software Development. Those aren't as math heavy as a CS degree but would carry more weight for someone working in software and IT related industries. Plus if you have any certifications, they can be used for credit; if you don't, you'll pick up some new certifications along the way.

Thanks for the feedback.  I did months of research where WGU was a candidate and settled on TESU for a few reasons.  However, my main goal is to teach, not necessarily to teach IT (that just happens to be the area where I have experience and certifications).  I'm still considering going for graduate school later and have since childhood wanted to be a lawyer, writer, journalist -- I love to argue and I think everyone is entitled to my opinion.  I thought something English focused might help me pursue those goals down the road.
