In the study, “Impact on Student Performance – Texas Adult Education Teacher Credential Study Preliminary Results,” data revealed that classes taught by teachers who have earned this credential have significantly more students meeting required gains as defined by the Texas State Assessment Policy.
Angela Pettit, chair of Academic Foundations and associate professor of English at the Northeast Campus, agrees with the findings. “Tod’s ESOL certification is significant in that it shows initiative on his part to continue to improve himself as an instructor for the betterment of our students, assuring our students are receiving quality instruction.”
