If you want to teach English to adult language learners, then our Graduate Certificate in Teaching English as an Additional Language is for you. We can teach you how to give your students an excellent command of their new language.

Because we understand you have a busy schedule, we have specifically designed this program so that you may complete all of the courses online. In fact, you can complete this certificate without residing in the Birmingham area or even in Alabama. You will take courses on learning to use methods for teaching English as an international language, teaching English for specific purposes, knowing phonology to help learners overcome pronunciation difficulties, and much more. Finally, you’ll conclude with a capstone teaching project either in Birmingham or close to where you live.
