Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) is one of the fastest-growing educational fields in the world.
Kent State is one of few institutions in the nation offering a hands-on, comprehensive certificate program in TEFL., where they gain experience as teachers of English while immersing themselves within another culture.
With the world’s growing need for individuals who speak English, the demand for people who can teach English as a foreign language has grown rapidly over the past few decades.
Classes such as ENG-31007 TESL Pedagogy and ENG-31008 Grammar for TESL/TEFL are only offered in the spring semester. Please check with your advisor to make sure you are taking these courses at the most advantageous time and are kept up-to-date on any prequisites.
