Tarleton Model for Accelerated/Alternative Teacher Education (TMATE) Program
The TMATE program is an exemplary accelerated teacher certification program in Texas with a mission to encourage, engage, and empower our interns. TMATE Interns earn a Master of Arts in Teacher Education, as they complete teacher certification. We partner with school districts to develop Texas teachers who:
- build relationships with students, parents, community and teammates;
- provide instruction and classroom environments conducive to learning; and
- collaborate using student data to ensure all students learn.
