Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) is an academic field that focuses on the pedagogy and methodologies of teaching English as a second or foreign language to non-native speakers. It equips educators with the necessary skills to help learners develop their English language proficiency in various cultural and linguistic contexts.
Studying TESOL allows individuals to make a significant impact on the lives of English language learners by helping them gain proficiency and confidence in using English for academic, professional, and social purposes. As English continues to be a global lingua franca, there is a growing demand for qualified TESOL professionals worldwide. This degree offers a rewarding career path for those passionate about language education and intercultural communication.
Graduates of a degree in TESOL will have a wide variety of career options available to them in the field of education and language teaching. These include English as a Second Language (ESL) or English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teacher, language instructor in private language schools, language program coordinator, and curriculum developer for language learning institutions.
Your degree will be delivered through a combination of lectures, seminars, and practical teaching experiences. Depending on your course, you may have the opportunity to participate in teaching practicums or internships in local schools or language centres. Modules you study could include:
