Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) In-Service MA

UCL (University College London)

The UCL TESOL MA course comprises two routes: In-service and Pre-service. The TESOL MA In-service aims to enhance the career prospects of a second or foreign language teacher and contribute to professional development. Students will explore the latest developments in the theory, policy and practice of TESOL, working with leading experts in the field and other MA students from around the world. This course will give you the opportunity to discuss and debate issues related to teaching second and foreign languages. You will also develop your knowledge of how theory can inform practice in second and foreign language education. You will deepen your understanding of key concepts and ideas, and develop your ability to select, design and evaluate language teaching materials. This course is suitable for practising teachers of English as a second or foreign language (ESL, EFL, ESOL) throughout the world. We accept teachers of other languages on the understanding that most of the examples used during the course will be drawn from English language teaching. This programme is also available on a modular (flexible) basis, with a duration of 5 calendar years.
