About Bachelor of Arts - Theatre - Theatre Teacher Education

Program Description

The Theatre Teacher Education sequence at Illinois State University is dedicated to preparing highly qualified teachers/artists to meet the challenges of education in the secondary school system. 

Illinois State University is recognized nationally as the second largest producer of teachers among institutions certified by the American Association of Colleges of Teacher Education. Nearly one of every seven teachers in Illinois public school classrooms holds a degree from Illinois State.


As a Theatre Teacher Education student, students receive a solid foundation of basic skills in traditional theatre courses, such as acting, directing, design, theatre history, and dramatic literature. Teaching skills will be enhanced by professional studies classes taught through the College of Education.

The strength of the Theatre Teacher Education sequence lies partly in the variety of clinical experiences students have while working in a high school setting. These include the opportunity to assist master teachers in extracurricular speech and theatre activities; presenting workshops; and demonstrating teaching lessons in the classroom. 

During the final year at Illinois State University, seniors will student teach in a high school classroom under the supervision of a master teacher.
