Bilingual Course Study

The Bilingual Course of Study can be followed as part of the B-MATTC program for Multiple or Single Subject Candidates. The 1-year and 2-year course sequences both provide candidates with the courses as follows:

Summer Session I: EDUC 248B Bilingual Foundations in TK-12 Education

Fall Quarter: EDUC 249B Bilingual Methods in TK-12 Education

Spring Quarter: EDUC 247B Latino/a Language and Culture

These courses, taken in addition to the MATTC Multiple or Single Subject courses, will result in a recommendation for a Preliminary teaching credential and additional bilingual (Spanish) authorization. Candidates will leave the program with 65 quarter units (Multiple Subjects) or 59 quarter units (Single Subjects).

Candidates who already hold a valid teaching credential, and who wish to pursue the Bilingual Authorization Certificate will take the three courses listed above and also be required to take EDUC 246 Bilingual Seminar, offered in Winter quarter. These candidates will complete a total of 12 quarter units.
