Online Graduate TESOL Certificate
The online graduate-level Teaching English as a Second Language (TESOL) acccredited certificate program at Colorado Christian University prepares candidates to successfully teach English language learners in the United States and abroad.
TESOL certification enables individuals to work overseas for mission organizations and international schools, as well as to work with second language learners in the United States.
The program teaches candidates to apply evidence-based solutions to second language learners; develop lessons focusing on critical linguistic structures to support second language instructions; contextualize language instruction based on student proficiency levels and academic experience; and plan, implement, and modify appropriate instructional strategies to meet the needs of English language learners.
The online TESOL Certificate is available as a stand-alone program, or you may transfer 15 credits from the certificate to a CCU master's degree in Culturally and Linguistically Diverse Education or Curriculum and Instruction.
