Course Description:

'' A key aspect of the Graduate Certificate in Teaching English as a Second Language (TESOL) is the flexibility of its delivery. It may be studied full-time or part-time within the University’s semester structure and, where cohorts of students from a particular institution are involved simultaneously, it may be studied in intensive mode. The length of the intensive mode is at least 4 weeks, with topics being offered concurrently. This constitutes full-time study for the duration of the intensive structure.

It is aimed at the development of skills in the area of teaching English to speakers of other languages (TESOL).

The program of study is designed to facilitate the development of disciplinary knowledge in the area of second language acquisition, as well as in the area of teaching English to speakers of other languages. The combination of theoretical knowledge and teaching methodology combine to equip prospective teachers with the basic tools for classroom practice in the area of TESOL.

The Graduate Certificate TESOL is designed for the following groups:

graduates who do not have a formal teaching qualification and wish to teach English as a second language;
qualified teachers who require specialised knowledge in TESOL;
qualified teachers of other subjects, which are taught using English (as the language for instruction) as a second language.
Students taking the program will explore current theories in second language teaching, investigate classroom issues related to teaching TESOL and critique second language teaching methodologies. On completion of the program students will be able to:

describe current teaching theories in second language acquisition;
identify issues related to teaching in a second language; and
articulate and implement second language teaching methodologies.
