Besides providing invaluable insights to instruction, the teachers have created a uniquely supportive community in and beyond the classroom. I will always remain grateful for the thoughtful guidance of the gifted and dedicated faculty. ESOL and TESOL students and practitioners, as well as the Brooklyn College and CUNY communities at large, are losing an irreplaceable resource with the closing of this program. Please reconsider this decision.

It is an outstanding, complete program giving the TESOL students theory and practical experience. The staff is professional and helpful. When I went to interviews as a potentialfs53 ESL teacher, the Brooklyn College TESOL Program's good reputation preceded me: this program has been known to graduate well trained ESL instructors. It would be a shame to take either of the programs away from future students.
