All classes are based on Facilitative Language Teaching, which recognizes the needs for both fluency and accuracy in a second language.
Classes are task-based and project oriented.
We believe people learn by doing. Applicants for certificates must have at least a bachelor's degree from an approved college or professional school. The applicant must be fluent in English listening, speaking, reading, and writing in order to be deemed qualified to teach English as a Second or Foreign Language. Seattle University School of Education has only graduate level and post baccalaureate classes. Students in the classes have finished their bachelor's degrees from regionally accredited institutions.
