MSc Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL)

This flexible MSc has been developed for teachers and other TESOL professionals – such as educational administrators, inspectors, materials or curriculum developers, assessment specialists, and policymakers – as well as those planning to undertake doctoral study in TESOL or applied linguistics. The programme particularly values the professional experiences that participants bring. It provides a learning context in which you can reflect on your professional practice, the policies and diverse contextual factors that frame it, the theoretical frameworks that inform it, and the research that exists or could be conducted to substantiate or refute intuitive judgments. Eligible students will have the opportunity to gain an internationally recognised professional certificate (Cambridge English CELTA) in addition to MSc TESOL. The Cambridge CELTA course is delivered by an external provider and attracts an additional fee. Entry criteria apply.
