Welcome to the National Hispanic University's Teacher Education Department. Our classes are designed to prepare teachers that are effective in California's culturally and linguistically diverse schools. The faculty believes that an effective teacher knows and uses appropriate strategies that meet the developmental and diverse needs of all students.

The Teacher Education faculty prepares Multiple Subject, Mild to Moderate Special Education and Single Subject teachers. Single Subject teachers can earn a preliminary credential in the areas of Art, English, Math, Physical Education, Science, Social Science and Spanish. The department also is approved to provide the CTEL/CLAD certificate to teachers needing English Learner certification.
