  • MTLE: English as a Second Language K-12 (sub test 1 and sub test 2)

The above assumes you have a valid Minnesota full-time license, exempting you from the basic skills and pedagogy test requirements.

Pedagogy Requirements Satisfied by MN Teaching License


These requirements are deemed as satisfied by a valid Minnesota full-time teaching license.

Remaining Pedagogy Requirements - Additional License, K-12


Content Requirements - ESL


ESL candidates must have one year (two semesters) of college foreign language courses or two years at the high school level. Non-native English speakers are exempt as it is assumed they learned English as a second language.
