Applied Linguistics and TESOL Program

The Applied Linguistics and TESOL Program sits in the middle of Morningside Heights, part of Columbia University’s teacher-prep ecosystem. It offers graduate-level training in second-language acquisition, curriculum design, assessment strategies, and classroom technology. Language-teaching practicums and research colloquia round out the standard offerings.

Inside Zankel Hall Room 316, 525 W 120th St New York, NY 10027, students and visiting scholars pursue coursework and dissertation work side by side. Faculty focus on how languages are learned, how best to teach them, and how policy shapes classroom practice—no glossy brochures required.
