Graduate Certificate in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages

Offered online and on campus

The graduate certificate in teaching English to speakers of other languages is ideal for prospective teachers in both ESL and content areas who wish to teach in the United States and abroad. Students learn to identify and interpret the characteristics and needs of English learners and apply knowledge in the practice of instructional methodology and assessment that develops academic and social English proficiency. The four courses in the TESOL graduate certificate count towards most state licensure or add-on endorsement requirements and provide students with knowledge and skills needed to achieve on the English for Speakers of Other Languages Praxis Test.
