Course summary
This 18-month course is for students who want to study TESOL and gain some work-based experience in the UK. Designed specifically for those with little or no teaching experience, it offers the opportunity to complete the 12-month MA TESOL and then undertake an additional 6-month teaching placement, making the course 18 months in length. This will allow you to put into practice the skills and techniques developed throughout the Master’s degree. Your placement will involve teaching international students within the University with support from our experienced TESOL staff. Why TESOL?
- You’ll develop your understanding of English language classroom practice from an international perspective, including lesson planning, development of learning resources and teaching and assessment methods, all of which prepare you for teaching across the globe.
- You’ll have the opportunity to develop research and evaluation skills and learn how to apply these to a range of professional contexts.
- You’ll be taught by an outstanding team of teachers and have access to our extensive professional and academic network which feeds directly into course design and delivery and to excellent facilities and specialist equipment.
