PK-12 Foreign Language Intern Pathway

Travis Kreider

 

 

“I decided to make a subtle change in my career and Wilson College helped me to achieve that. After teaching at an independent school for seventeen years, I decided to become a Latin teacher in a public school. Wilson College’s FLIP program allowed me to successfully achieve my goals. The Wilson instructors and administrators were helpful throughout the process. I am now happily employed in a local district, teaching and engaging students daily.” -- Travis Kreider ’21, Latin, Camp Hill School District

State Reciprocity:

Wilson College offers Pennsylvania Level I certification for its education programs. Pennsylvania certification is reciprocal with most of the 50 states. Generally speaking, if you hold a valid PA professional teaching license from a regionally accredited and state-approved teacher preparation program and pass the required state testing, you will be able to obtain a teaching license in another state. Wilson College has not made a determination of requirements for each state, so please click here for detailed requirements on all 50 states. You can view information on how teacher credentials cross state lines here.
