The Master of Teaching is a 12-month, group-based program operating annually from June to May. Participants undertake teaching placements supervised by experienced mentor educators and instructional coaches. These practical experiences occur across various school settings to provide a broad range of learning opportunities for aspiring teachers. Designed as a graduate-level program, it requires applicants to hold a bachelor's degree beforehand. This curriculum specifically targets individuals pursuing preK-12 teaching certification in U.S. schools, rather than those exclusively aiming to teach English overseas. For international TESOL teaching aspirations, UVA's TESOL Certificate might better align with those career objectives.
