The Master of Arts in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) combines linguistic theory with practical teaching skills. This program equips students with both knowledge and hands-on experience, enabling them to make thoughtful decisions about various language instruction methods. Students will also learn how individual learner differences, educational contexts, and societal factors impact their professional choices as educators or language specialists. The TESOL graduate program offers comprehensive training in contemporary language acquisition theories, preparing graduates for diverse roles including teacher training, curriculum development, assessment design, and classroom instruction.
