Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL)

This one year full-time course provides an exciting professional development opportunity for those interested in teaching English as a second or foreign language. It is also valuable to those interested in the use of English as a general teaching medium. It examines the structure and grammar of English and develops the methods used to teach English. It also explores the social and cultural implications of the use of English as a global language. Students are encouraged to expand their understanding within these topics by developing and applying their research skills to problems within a range of professional contexts. The School of Education and Professional Development has a proud and successful history of working with international students and values the rich contribution they make to the School's intellectual and cultural life. The School offers high quality support and an excellent educational experience in order to help students achieve their potential.
