Is this a good academic plan for my desired career?

I want to work as a science educator; similar to the sense that Sal Khan is. The plan I want to pursue is the following. Let me know what your tips are or if you know anyone who has followed a similar plan:

1- BA in mathematics (in progress)
2- MA in mathematics (future), BA in physics (future)
3- MA in physics (future), BA in chemistry (future)

Does this sound like a good plan? I want to teach mainly math and physics, but I think a lot of people need help in chemistry as well. So, if I were to get the following degrees, I would become better equipped to teach science to high school and college students or even tutor. I am not sure if I want to pursue the PhD path because of the strenuous competition, but for now this is my plan.
