Master in Teaching in Secondary Teacher Education - English

The Secondary Teacher Education Program (STEP) is an intensive one-year Master in Teaching and certification program in secondary math, science, social studies, English or a world language. We prepare graduates to affirm and support middle or high school students from myriad identities through the lens of educational justice.

At STEP, youll receive expert mentorship and engage in extensive fieldwork. This cohort-based program starts in spring quarter and finishes with full-time student teaching in late winter, just as hiring season begins. Our students often work as long- or short-term substitute teachers in the spring or add on additional endorsements in teaching English Language Learners and Computer Science Education.
