Master of Education [M.Ed] [Childhood Education Teacher (1-6)] From Brooklyn College

Here, you can either learn how to teach exuberant pupils in grades one through six, or join the burgeoning field of special education. As a teacher of students in grades one through six, your intellect will be engaged by the challenges of covering different kinds of material. Attaining a master's in childhood education will put on the path to gaining certification by the New York State Department of Education to teach in these classrooms. Special education requires exceptional teachers. A caring, patient and resilient person, you're attuned to the fact that individuals have different needs when it comes to education. Special education students experience a variety of obstacles, and our program will show you what those are and how you can help students of all ages overcome them.
Through collaborative action, teaching and research, we develop our students' capacities to create socially just, intellectually vital, aesthetically rich, and compassionate communities that value equity and excellence, access and rigor. We design our programs in cooperation with liberal arts and sciences faculties and in conjunction with local schools in order to provide our students with opportunities to develop the knowledge, proficiencies, and understandings needed to work with New York City's racially, ethnically, and linguistically diverse populations.
