PUT YOUR LANGUAGES TO WORK!
Would you like to travel and add skills to your resume? Have you ever thought about working abroad? How about teaching? Is your goal in pursuing a college degree to do good in the world? Do you love studying languages because it gives you the opportunity to learn and grow, but yet you wonder how that will translate into a job and a career?
Consider teaching in language education programs by earning a MAT/MAT-TESOL and teaching credentials as you simultaneously work on your undergraduate degree. Set yourself up for success in getting a job in a discipline that not only does does good in the world; the progressive degree program allows you to finish sooner, spending less time on coursework and possibly incurring less debt than if you were to do two separate degree programs.
