Program details

Overview

York University's Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) certificate develops teaching knowledge and practical, classroom-based skills for a range of teaching contexts. The professional certificate includes a guided teaching practicum, offered both in person and online, and is accredited by TESL Ontario, a credential recognized by employers across Ontario. Students may also pursue international teaching-practice opportunities through partnerships in Japan and Mexico, alongside the domestic practicum options. The certificate is offered full-time or part-time, with admission in the Fall, Winter or Summer term, and can be completed concurrently while pursuing an undergraduate degree or consecutively after completing one. As a professional, TESL Ontario-accredited credential rather than a purely academic one, it is designed to be recognized directly by employers.
