Overview
Candidates of the French program of The University of Maine take seven to eight courses (21-24 credits) in language, literature, culture and linguistics in the target language, one course in language pedagogy and one course on teaching the exceptional student in English. An oral exam and a professional teaching portfolio which illustrate the candidate’s familiarity with Maine’s teaching standards and his/her readiness to teach a second language in the K-12 classroom are the final requirements for both degrees.
Practicing teachers who are already certified to teach French or Spanish may opt to take additional courses in their target language, or they may resume the study of a second foreign language at the advanced (400 or 500) level in lieu of taking courses leading to certification.
