About the course

The purpose of the Graduate Certificate in K12 Teaching English as a Second Language (TESL) is to prepare K12 teachers to teach ESL classes and to better service English Learners (Els) presently in K12 classes. The program is designed for participants who have already obtained a State of Michigan teaching license and are interested in this additional endorsement. The courses in the Graduate K12 TESL Certificate program will help teachers understand the linguistic and cultural problems that students have when English is not their native language. With TESL background and training, educators will be able to deal with those problems effectively and help students who speak a first language other than English to become more integrated into classroom activities.
