Plus, you'll have the chance to boost your employability with the Trinity Certificate in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages alongside your Masters.This TESOL course offers a deep dive into teaching English to non-native speakers, combining theory and practice across three trimesters.The course starts with foundational concepts, then on to practical teaching skills, and ends with an extended research project or dissertation – you choose. You’ll be assessed through a series of assignments, evaluations, and your final project/dissertation. To ensure that you understand the cornerstones of TESOL, the course teaches you about teacher language awareness, language learning theory, and language teaching methodology, covering grammar, phonology, vocabulary, and discourse.
