Bilingual Teaching Residency Grant Program

October 16, 2024

CSUN has a partnership with the Multicultural Learning Center (MLC), a TK-8 public charter school to engage candidates in the Multiple Subject Credential program in a paid yearlong residency. Candidates must be bilingual in Spanish and pursuing a bilingual authorization as part of their credential and they will conduct their full year of student teaching at MLC under the mentorship of an experienced bilingual educator. Candidates will receive a stipend of $30,000 for the school year.

MLC implements a Dual Immersion Program in English and Spanish and prioritizes social justice, social emotional learning, biliteracy, and multiculturalism. The school has been serving the community since 2001 and has engaged many CSUN students as residents, student teachers, and paraprofessional staff over the years.

As part of the Residency program, candidates will have the opportunity to attend professional development workshops and receive coaching and support from passionate educators, while getting to know the MLC community. Upon completion of the residency and credential program, candidates will be employed by the school.

If you are interested please email MLC at recruitment@mlccharter.org – we look forward to meeting you!
