Health Teacher Education degree programs

Health teacher education prepares you to teach health topics such as nutrition, mental and emotional wellness, substance use, first aid, and personal safety, most often to students in middle and high school. Coursework combines health science content with teaching methods, so you learn both the subject and how to lead age-appropriate lessons on sensitive topics. Many health teachers also hold a physical education credential and split their day between the two subjects.
