Overview

The goal of the Bilingual Education degree is to educate K-12 students in all the academic subjects while they are learning English as a second or additional language (ESL).

Features

Fairfield University's programs benefit from being located near K-12 schools in our partner districts (Bridgeport, Danbury, Greenwich, Norwalk, Stamford, and Stratford) with long-established TESOL and Bilingual Education programs.

A nationally recognized program is one that has systematically assessed candidates' learning and meet rigorous standards developed by the speciality professional association (SPA) in that discipline.
