The Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) (PGDip) equips students with the knowledge and skills required to teach English language to learners of different age groups and educational needs. The course is designed for home or international students who wish to pursue a career in teaching English to non-native speakers of English.
The aim of the programme is to train self-reflective language teaching professionals with a solid foundation in research skills, applied linguistics, second language acquisition and language teaching pedagogy.
The programme’s emphasis on applied research skills offers successful graduates progression opportunities into further research at doctoral level.
Career Opportunities
Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) is a growing area of employment. The skills you learn on this course (e.g. lesson planning, presentation skills, classroom experience, research skills) are transferable to other languages and a wide range of professional situations.
Career destinations include language tutors in various private and public sector contexts, primary/secondary teachers and vocational/industrial trainers and instructors.
Applicants are expected to have a good first degree (a first or upper second), although every application is considered in its own merit, so places may be offered on the basis of professional qualification and relevant experiences. Candidates with a lower degree classification or no degree may be admitted at Postgraduate Certificate or Diploma level, with an opportunity to upgrade to Master’s level if satisfactory progress is made.
