Bilingual Education is the teaching of academic content in two languages - a native and second language.
A good bilingual teacher is someone who is fully literate in English and at least one other language, excited about learning, sociable and easy to talk to, patient and resourceful, good at motivating students, self-oriented and organized.
The Bilingual Education Center was created to address the shortage of bilingual educators in the public elementary and secondary schools. We hope to close this gap by providing strategies for student success, building career pathways, and providing professional development for staff and faculty that address the challenges Mountain View students encounter in achieving career goals.
