| Program Description: This intensive teaching certificate program prepares participants to teach students whose skills range from beginning or low literacy to college/university levels. Classes integrate theory and teaching practice in an ESOL classroom enabling teacher-trainees to apply what they have learned immediately. The certificate consists of 7 required courses. A detailed certificate brochure is available on our website, at our open house and in our office. Native speakers of English should have a baccalaureate degree from an accredited college or university. Applicants with at least 60 college credits will be considered.
