Depends on where you want to teach I think.  What country?

My understanding of the US is that you only need a license if you're teaching in a public K-12 school.  If you're teaching privately you don't need a license.  I'm teaching at a university and don't have a license since it's not required.  More certifications may help in recruiting students, however.
