Overview

The Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages programme at California State University East Bay is organized around a cohort model which helps to create a strong sense of connection between classmates. Because our M.A. TESOL students are diverse in age, academic preparation, ethnic and linguistic backgrounds, and teaching experiences, they create a vibrant community of passionate peers who share valuable knowledge and experiences with each other in and out of the classroom. This community of learners creates many opportunities to explore different possibilities in teaching.
