Certificate Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages
Linguistics is the discipline that studies and describes language in all its aspects: its structure, its use, its history, its varieties and how it is learned. Some linguists are interested primarily in devising theories to explain why languages are the way they are and how the human mind shapes language. Other linguists are more concerned with the practical, such as teaching a second language, working as a sign language interpreter or programming a computer to handle linguistic information.
The Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages Certificate Program prepares students to teach English language skills abroad or to teach adults in the U.S. The entire program is designed to be completed in two semesters of full-time study.
