If you have always wanted to be a world language teacher, this is your opportunity.
The BSEd in German/World Language Education program prepares students to teach modern, classical, and less commonly taught languages in pre-school through 12th grade. There are established plans of study for French, German, Latin, and Spanish education. Additionally, this program can certify students pursuing an Arabic, Chinese, Italian, Japanese, or Russian degree.
Students who complete the program earn T-4 (initial) certification to teach in Georgia public schools. The program lasts one academic year (two semesters) and is filled with engaging, hands-on opportunities to apply theory into practice and to learn while doing.
Our students are always amazed at how much they learn in a short period of time as well as how fast time goes when they are in our program.
