The University of Maryland has this course:

LING 460 Diversity and Unity in Human Languages (3 credits)
Fundamentals of grammatical typology as they relate to issues in
social attitudes towards language. Linguistic structure of standard
and non-standard languages and dialects. Relationship of different
writing systems to linguistic structure. Issues in bilingualism and
multilingualism.

It looks like it would be ideal for a teacher; perhaps a little too
structural. It's in the graduate catalog but it looks as if it is a
class open to undergrads as well.
