University of Redlands
University of Redlands’ innovative Multiple and Single Subject programs, which prepare students to teach in an elementary school setting, feature student teaching, internships, and the use of theory to inform educationally just practices and create confident and competent teachers. These dynamic programs orient prospective teachers to a social justice view of the world.
All candidates leave the programs with a transformed view of teaching, knowing how to purposefully engage students of diverse backgrounds. Our graduating teachers are sought out by school districts across Southern California.
The Preliminary Teaching Credential, Multiple or Single Subject programs are the longest-running programs in the School of Education and are the foundation upon which the school’s educational curriculum evolved.
Preliminary Teaching Credential, Multiple Subject prepares students to teach multiple-subjects in Pre K–12 schools.
Preliminary Teaching Credential, Single Subject prepares students to teach single-subjects in Pre K–12 schools.
Teacher candidates have two options for fulfilling the fieldwork requirement.
During student-teaching, teacher candidates will be paired with a cooperating teacher in one of our partnered school districts, full-time for 14 weeks. Student-teachers are supported every other week by a university supervisor.
Interested students may be eligible for a teaching internship to fulfill their fieldwork experience. As an intern, the student is a full-time employee of a public school district or charter school with a classroom of their own. It is the student’s responsibility to secure a full-time position in their credential field. The University of Redlands will oversee the student for at least 14 weeks in this position. Students must be prepared to take on this immense responsibility and it is only recommended to those who have prior teaching experience. Interns are supported weekly by a district-assigned mentor and a university supervisor.
Important Deadline Information: Please refer to the Application and Enrollment Calendar for deadlines.

As PRIDE month wraps up, we took a moment to catch up with some of our faculty in the University of Redlands School of Education, which trains future educators, administrators, school counselors, and mental health counselors, to discuss the ways LGBTQ+ issues are, or could be, handled in school and counseling settings.
It is not uncommon to hear mathematics described as boring, difficult, abstract, confusing, or irrelevant. Coupled with worry, discomfort, and other negative views toward numbers, these feelings could be attributed to mathematics anxiety.
