The TESOL Master of Arts in Teaching program is a 33-credit, intensive full-time program that begins in May and runs through August the next year. Students work in cohort groups while completing coursework, a semester-long internship, and a student-teaching placement in K-12 schools. Upon completion, students receive a Master of Arts in Teaching with a TESOL focus and qualify for K-12 ESL teaching certification. The program's goal is to equip educators to teach English learners in diverse educational environments, both locally and internationally. Through continuous critical reflection and hands-on field experiences in schools and communities, graduates develop essential professional knowledge, skills, and teaching approaches.

Thanks to a National Professional Development grant, qualified applicants may receive full tuition assistance for the TESOL M.A.T. program. For details about this funding opportunity, check out Project Ignite (Innovation to Grow, Nurture, and Inspire Teachers of English-learners). You can also complete a brief Self-Assessment to determine which TESOL program aligns best with your professional aspirations.
