TEACHERS FOR THE NATIONS (TFN)
Christian History: Researching the Christian history of nations lays the foundation for the training of teachers who will "raise up the foundations of many generations and...be called, the repairer of the breach, the restorer of paths to dwell in." (Isaiah 58:12).

Christian Education: identifying the source and purpose for every subject in the curriculum through biblical research and reasoning prepares the student teachers to see how Gods plan for each subject brings liberty for the individual. Practical lessons in classroom teaching are covered.

Internship: daily interaction with students allows the student teacher to have hands-on training alongside an experienced classroom teacher who provides a godly example of biblical instruction. They are discipled by "walking through" an entire school year. This process allows them to observe as well as experience a teacher’s life before taking on the full responsibility themselves. Each of these parts, that is, the three courses EDU 240-242, is taught in parallel, and extends throughout the nine-month school year.
