You can get a feel for the skills and experience required by browsing remote job listings for teachers (see more below).

In the traditional education environment, teachers are required to hold at least a bachelor’s degree. However, it’s not always necessary to have a degree in education.

Here are a couple of videos from people who became school teachers without an education degree…

If you don’t have a bachelor’s degree but still want to start working in teaching, consider remote tutoring instead which has a much lower barrier to entry.

Frequently, remote teachers may also work as remote tutors outside of their normal working hours to supplement their income. This can make them both teacher and tutor at the same time.

Without a bachelor’s degree, you might also become a freelancer and, for example, teach English online via sites like iTalki.
