Why You Should Study This Course

We’ll aid your understanding of the key theories and principles in TESOL, providing a balance of academic and professional content and experience. You’ll develop your ability in language analysis and understanding, as well as further your knowledge on how to incorporate this appropriately in class materials.

We have a flexible and supportive learning program that develops your current understanding and knowledge of TESOL while providing you with the necessary research and reflection skills to continue on your academic or professional career path.

Throughout the course, the amount of independent study gradually increases, both within and across modules, in order to build your confidence and self-reliance.
