Do you need Latin?
Hello, I'd like to study to become a secondary school English teacher. However, I've heard that to teach English at secondary schools, you need a Latinum (or rather, you have to have studied Latin). Now here's the problem: I've never studied Latin before, and I'm quite glad I did. Would I have to retake Latin to study English? Oh, and I live in Bavaria, if that's helpful in any way. Thanks in advance.

Usually not.
Look at the university where you want to study it. It may be that it is required there.
You can retrieve the Latinum in the first semesters. But is more demanding in the short time than if you had it on the gym for years.
