International Students
Approximately 25% of the TESOL graduate students are international students. They come from countries such as; Korea, Japan, China, Taiwan, Saudi Arabia, Thailand and Indonesia. Their experiences with learning English and in participating in other educational systems around the world enrich our program tremendously. We value their perspectives on teaching and learning languages.
