Program Description
The MA in Education (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) – MA in Education (TESOL) – is designed for experienced TESOL professionals who have full-time experience of teaching English as a foreign or second language in any context.
This route is an opportunity for students to explore an aspect of TESOL relevant to their interests and career development aspirations. Students reflect upon their own practice, identify areas of professional relevance and explore possible approaches to TESOL. Students are encouraged to share their experiences and perspectives on aspects of educational practice. Learning is shared with students on other MA in Education routes, who come from a variety of educational settings and backgrounds. This gives students the opportunity to develop a systematic and critical understanding not only of TESOL, but also of the breadth and depth of knowledge in educational research and practice.
