TESOL Pathways to MLL Endorsement
We have recently designed a RIDE-approved MLL Endorsement pathway for pre and in-service teachers, and it is available at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. This endorsement includes two courses: TESL 401 and TESL 402, which were intentionally designed to blend elements of second language acquisition theory from TESL 539 and pedagogical strategies from TESL 548. Candidates who successfully complete TESL 401 and TESL 402 can then shorten the graduate-level pathway to full certification because they will have met the requirements of TESL 539 and TESL 548.
