English as a Second Language at Salisbury University

About the English as a Second Language Concentration

The curriculum also supports learning foreign languages such as Spanish, French and German.

For those looking for a more in-depth study of English language acquisition, SU also offers a major in ESOL (English to Speakers of Other Languages) designed to prepare educators in instructional and leadership roles in K-12 school settings. We also offer a minor in ESOL for those looking to pair their interest in language with another major.
