This program is ideal for graduates currently employed or beginning their careers in teaching English as a second/foreign language, who want to enhance their specialized knowledge and abilities in TESOL and related linguistic fields.
It bridges theoretical concepts with practical applications to cultivate essential teaching competencies in core TESOL subjects, delivering current, comprehensive, and analytical insights into the discipline from leading researchers and educators.
The course provides adaptable pathways tailored to individual requirements and backgrounds through small-group instruction and diverse elective options. The 'Dissertation Track' caters to students with prior teaching experience and is particularly advisable for those considering advanced academic pursuits. The 'Portfolio Track' is structured for individuals with minimal or no teaching background, involving a portfolio project that incorporates classroom observations and teaching practice during the summer term at our prestigious International Study and Language Institute (ISLI).
