Master of Arts in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL)
Teaching Internship
Following the first-term coursework phase, students complete a six- to eight-week supervised teaching internship. Students apply to their top-choice internship sites from a range of diverse settings in the US and abroad. Options typically include working with refugees; immigrants; elementary, high school, or college students; or teaching other teachers.
The internship allows students to practice the skills, knowledge, and awareness acquired during the first-term coursework phase. Students remain engaged with faculty and other students and receive course credit for documenting the integration of their knowledge and skills teaching in a professional context.
