My time in the MA TESOL program at PSU was one of the most enriching experiences of my life. I'm indebted to the superb faculty and staff that helped me find my purpose and place within higher education.

 --Zachary Jones, MA TESOL alum

The faculty represent a diversity of opinions within the field. Janet Cowal showed me the importance of activism in linguistics. Kim Brown showed me by example how to show up for students and really go out of your way for them. Lynn Santelmann has such a depth of knowledge and such a pragmatic look on academia. She doesn't beat around the bush; she'll tell you exactly what you need to do in order to succeed.

  --Jake Malstrom, Applied Linguistics alum
