pat: What is the difference between English Education and English and Language arts Education?
When selecting a major, which would be a better choice to teach? I want to teach on a upper high school level, but which one has more, and what does one teach that the other does not?

English education is probably focused more on the English language. Meaning correct grammar, spelling, punctuation, et cetera.
English and Language Arts is probably correct English usage but also English literature and poetry, analysis, essay writing, et cetera.

As for which is better to teach, I really can’t tell you. You should contact an academic advisor in the English department and ask if they can better explain the differences of those two majors.
