Bilingual / TESOL

The philosophical framework embraced by the programs in TESOL and Bilingual Education at Adelphi University combines theory, practice, and understandings that are embedded with an awareness and sensitivity of gender, race, class, and ability in Pre-K–12 school-age children. Both programs are committed to preparing teachers and related support professionals to meet the needs and demands of diverse communities.

TESOL Programs
Candidates for a Masters in TESOL are required to develop and maintain a standards based portfolio throughout their program of study to assess the candidate’s proficiency in meeting the TESOL standards and demonstrate how they apply these national standards to the Ruth S. Ammon School of Education’s core values.
