Greg Gerkens
 Greg Gerkens, an educational professional in New York, most
recently served students in special education programs in the
Eastern Suffolk BOCES system. Greg Gerkens holds a variety
of advanced professional credentials, including literacy
education, special education, and ELL certifications.
In the state of New York, English Language Learner (ELL)
enrollment has increased by 20 percent in the past decade.
ELL students now make up nearly 10 percent of the public
school population. In response, the state of New York made
major regulatory changes in 2014, opening several new routes
to allow educators to better serve ELL students, notably
including the TESOL program.
 The state has also made provisions for dually certified
teachers, professionals who can provide instruction in
ELL and an academic content area simultaneously.
Certified teachers in New York can now attain the
Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages
(TESOL) certification, which allows them to teach ELL
students in various settings without attaining an
additional degree. This is an individual certification
pathway, and specific requirements will depend on
previous coursework. To learn more about TESOL
requirements or apply for certification, visit:
