Course summary

Course description

MA TESOL is designed to help experienced teachers of English to speakers of other languages to further their expertise and/or begin following a specialised pathway in one of the following (which can be applied to as separate courses, rather than as MA TESOL alone):

  • Educational Technology;
  • Intercultural Education;
  • Materials and Course Design;
  • Teacher Education.

The course enables experienced TESOL practitioners to further their careers regarding obtaining positions of seniority, undertaking new areas of professional activity or contributing to the professional development of other teachers.

Applications from both native and non-native-English-speaking teachers are welcome.

Aims

  • Gain understanding of the international currency of English, and the developments in the educational environment afforded by technology access and global networking.
  • Develop your knowledge of TESOL-related research, theory and areas of debate.
  • Develop advanced professional skills such as conducting needs analyses and evaluating, adapting and designing teaching and learning resources.

Teaching and learning

The course is taught by lecturers who themselves have been language teachers (TESOL and other languages) with experience of working in Britain and overseas.

Formal lectures are rare, and instead classes tend to mix sections of input with group-work, computer and video activities, simulations and problem-based learning.

We encourage both individual and co-operative learning and research and hope to foster an ethos of lifelong learning.

We aim to build on the expertise of our students, all of whom are experienced teachers, and who bring with them a wealth of knowledge and practical experience from a wide range of different countries.

Career opportunities

MA TESOL graduates go on to positions of seniority, undertake new areas of professional activity such as publishing or materials development, contribute to the professional development of other teachers, and act in advisory capacities to teaching and associated agencies at both national and international level.

Manchester Institute of Education (MIE) graduates go on to shape education policy and practice through positions in NGOs and in the public and private sector.
