About the course

Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (MA TESOL) prepares teachers for a wide variety of positions both in the U.S. and abroad.

The program emphasizes language acquisition processes, teaching methodology, linguistics, language testing, research, and sociocultural influences. A total of 36 units is required, with at least half of the units earned in 5000-level courses. A comprehensive examination, or a thesis or project is also required.
