A Blog on the Spring 2012 Assumption College TESOL Certificate Program: April 11 - June 14
Welcome Teacher-Learners!
Assumption College is a Catholic College founded by the Augustinians of the Assumption. Since April we have been studying, practicing, and learning more about Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL). This blog shares our just a bit of our experiences together over the past 2 and a half months in Worcester. As we close the book on this chapter of our lives, we trust that this TESOL experience will not only reward you intellectually, but also spiritually for your future teaching endeavors. Glad we've been together here in Massachusetts. God bless you and the work you lay your hands to. And may God bless Assumption College.
