The Master of TESOL Education is a professional development program, particularly for teachers of English as a Second Language (ESL). It is also designed to cater for non-native speaking teachers of English.
The program provides a thorough grounding in the theory and practice of Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL). You are encouraged to relate your own teaching experience and situation to your coursework, and the curriculum seeks to develop and extend the central skills for successful teaching and learning of English as a second or foreign language.
You are introduced to major aspects of second language acquisition theories, and examine different factors that influence the successful learning of another language. You deepen your understanding of the structure and the use of the English language, and learn how to incorporate communicative teaching methodologies, intercultural language learning principles and interlanguage phonology into your teaching practice.
Courses feature small group, face-to-face teaching that develops your abilities to exercise critical thinking, present information and arguments effectively, and use public presentation skills. The personal interaction skills you develop are essential in language teaching. You are assessed through a combination of assignments, peer-teaching activities and project work.
