The very first class I ever taught - in high school! - was astronomy. In college, I was the telescope operator for the University of Minnesota astronomy outreach program and assistant director at the observatory and planetarium at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire (where I also wrote a weekly astronomy newsletter and graded papers).
But I only formally studied astronomy, astrophysics, and optics for a few years. No degree, not even a completed study program. This is a field where at the very minimum, I'm sure I'd need both an advanced degree (in something) and a completed astronomy program. Don't you think?
