The TESOL Certificate at Covenant College
The Certificate in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) prepares students who desire to teach English to non-native English speakers. Students explore the fields of education, linguistics, English, and foreign languages to better understand how languages work and how to effectively teach a foreign or second language.
