About
The Master of Education (TESOL) program is suitable for experienced teachers wishing to upgrade or refine their English as a Second Language (ESL) or English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teaching skills. It is also for people who are new to education and wish to pursue careers in English language teaching in the adult education sector such as working with private colleges or migrant services.
During this degree you will study key theories and research of ESL/EFL teaching and supplement them with an in depth understanding of areas such as second language learning, pedagogical grammar, practical phonology/pronunciation, assessment and, evaluation, and technology-based language teaching.
Having developed the skills necessary to investigate and solve complex issues, you will then utilise these in an individualised research project that ties in with your work, interests, and study specialisation. You can also choose to do a supervised professional experience placement in an ESL or EFL classroom.
Additionally, you can choose to incorporate electives from other education areas, such as educational leadership or digital technologies for Learning, to tailor your degree to current and future career goals.
Choose between flexible study or on campus classes.
