TESL (Teaching English as a Second Language) Endorsement Grades K-12

The TESL endorsement is designed to equip students with the necessary skills to teach English as a second language (ESL). The endorsement is designed for students who are education majors and are interested in teaching ESL in a K-12 setting within the United States (see education section in this catalog). The TESL minor is for non-education students who will not be teaching ESL with a state teaching license. TESL students are encouraged to combine their TESL studies with a major or minor in Spanish for increased competence and enhanced employment possibilities.
