Students who did not learn English as their first language may face unique challenges in the classroom. A minor in K-12 English as a new language will equip you with the knowledge and skills you need to be a responsive and effective teacher for English language learners. You will learn curriculum, instruction and assessment methods for teaching English to multicultural students in rural and urban settings, and you will also examine the sociocultural issues that can affect language learning. Our program provides you with rich experiences in and beyond the classroom to enhance your teaching skills and prepare you to thrive in your future classroom.
Advance your teaching competencies, develop your intercultural communication skills and enhance your knowledge of the English language with a K-12 English as a new language minor.
