UAB offers an Educational Specialist degree in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL). As a post-MA degree, this EdS-TESOL provides advanced training in the teaching and learning of English as a Second Language (ESL) and English as a Foreign Language (EFL). Targeted for educators who already hold a master's degree in TESOL or a related area, this program equips TESOL educators with state-of-the-art instructional strategies for meeting the evolving needs of linguistically and culturally diverse learners, with collaborative skills for serving as reflective practitioners to guide change, and with mentoring techniques for positively influencing student achievement and institutional improvement. This EdS-TESOL prepares educators to assume mentorship and leadership roles to guide other educators in meeting the English-learning needs of their students in P-12 and adult settings. To that end, it prepares educators to become dynamic leaders and effective change agents by developing their capacity to serve as lead teachers, division heads, instructional coaches, professional development facilitators, and program specialists.
