Secondary English Education: the Department of English @ SIUE

ENGLISH EDUCATION PROGRAM INFORMATION

Students planning to become certified as Secondary English Teachers must fulfill all the requirements for a regular English BA, in addition to coursework in the School of Education and Speech Communication. Before student teaching, students must complete a rigorous screening process and pass several state exams for Illinois teachers. Because the requirements of the major are fairly complex, we highly suggest that new majors familiarize themselves with the materials provided below.
