If you're looking to assume leadership positions in culturally aware English education, whether in the U.S. or internationally, the Master of Arts (MA) in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) program equips students with diverse skills for English teaching careers. Tailored for working adults, this program offers evening and online classes, blending cutting-edge intercultural teaching methods with practical experience.
The TESOL master's program aims to equip graduates with essential competencies for teaching English to non-native speakers across various educational settings, from K-12 schools to higher education. By exploring contemporary theories and proven approaches in second language teaching, curriculum development, and evaluation, students will gain the expertise to design and implement effective ESL programs in the U.S. or EFL initiatives abroad.

Career Prospects
Qualified educators remain in constant demand. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics forecasts a 5% growth in education, training, and library occupations by 2028 - translating to over 500,000 new positions.1 These roles offered a median annual salary of $50,790 in May 2019, surpassing the national average across all professions.1
Recent federal statistics indicate that approximately 23% of American schoolchildren spoke a non-English language at home in 2017.2 This sustains strong demand for TESOL-trained educators within U.S. school districts.
