“A Regent education will open up doors for you. It certainly has for me.”
Roxie Godfrey, Ed.D., 2005 Teacher Educator & Assistant Professor, Texas Tech University
“If you are considering a career in teaching,
 consider preparing at Regent University.”
Doreatha White, M.Ed., 1997 Principal, J.J. Roberts Elementary School
“I found Regent's School of Education to be a place where I could obtain some of those practical skills I needed to help others. The TESOL curriculum included a good balance of instruction in reading, writing, and conversation skills that I can apply with adults or children.”
Jason Clark, M.Ed., 2010 TESOL
“The Virginia Beach City Public Schools cohort of ESL teachers in training was the perfect platform in which to study and learn. Upon completion of my last TESOL class, I was blessed with the opportunity to join the ESL staff of VBCPS. The amazing faculty of Regent's TESOL department helped make it possible.”
Altina Suber, M.Ed., 2015 Teacher
“Regent's M.Ed. in TESOL program has prepared me to organize and run the ESL courses at my school. Regent's TESOL professors assign the most applicable projects, which have helped me with planning lessons, selecting curriculum and creating assessments, as well as with conducting several teacher-in-service sessions for my school.”
