TESOL Practicum

This practicum provides an opportunity to apply theory and methodology to the ESL classroom through supervised student teaching. Certificate candidates meet with their instructor for 10 hours, work with a master teacher and teach 25 hours in a classroom setting. Candidates prepare a lesson plan, including teaching objectives, learner outcomes, methodologies, and assessment tools. Observation and feedback sessions with the instructor are arranged individually. Candidates organize a portfolio of their coursework, sample student work, and evidence of professional achievement in the TESOL program. Portfolio review is part of the certificate evaluation.
