英国学校TESOL专业分析
TESOL是“Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages” 的缩写,中文翻译是“对外英语教学”。TESOL专业适合人群
Ø 有语言专业背景的申请人
TESOL专业一般会要求学生有语言学方面的背景。在英国大学设置的课程里,几乎找不到与国内英语专业完全衔接的课程,除了接受转专业的商科专业、传媒等,MA TESO课程就是一个很好的选择。
Ø 无语言背景但钟爱英语教学的申请人
此外,还有一些院校也可以接受没有语言专业背景但是热爱英语教学专业的申请人,比如Newcastle大学。
Ø 有工作经验的申请人
TESOL专业有很多都是要有1到2年,甚至3年相关工作经验才能申请的,如爱丁堡大学、布里斯托大学的该课程,都需要申请者具有至少一年的工作经验。

课程设置:
Modules
You will study four core modules and your choice of two optional modules.
Core modules
TESOL Methods: This module is designed to develop your knowledge of and explore the application of the methodology of teaching English as a second/foreign language. You will examine the nature of each of the four language skills from a discourse perspective and develop links between what teachers and learners do in class and what applied linguistic research tells us about how second language acquisition takes place. You will gain an understanding of interactional competence and learn how to develop it among L2 learners.
English Linguistics: For some students this module may act as a review of some aspects of their previous study, for others it will act as an introduction to key aspects of the field of Linguistics. You will be provided with the essentials in the study of the structure of English and get the opportunity to understand the organising principles that unite the various levels of linguistic analysis. You will further learn how to relate the above to language use in a socio-cultural context and gain an overview of how the above theories are linked to the processes involved in teaching English as a second/foreign language.
Research Methods in Language Learning and Teaching: This module will give you an understanding of methods used to research language learning and teaching. You will explore the relationships between research questions, methods, data analysis and subsequent claims.
Planning and Communicating Research: Building on the knowledge and understanding of research methods gained in the previous module, you will engage in planning of a small research project, identifying and managing the different stages involved, from conception to analysis to writing up and disseminating your results. This module will provide you with the knowledge, understanding and skills necessary for conducting a research study and will allow you to reflect on these to enrich your own experience.
Optional Modules
Study your choice of one optional module which may be chosen from the list of modules available to all taught MA students in the Department of Education.
Modules that may be of particular interest for students on this course include:
· Cross-linguistic influences in second language acquisition
· Discourse analysis & language teaching
· Evaluating ESOL classroom practice
· Intercultural communication in education
· Learning and Teaching Second Language Reading
· Teaching and learning in schools
· Contemporary issues in teaching
· Developmental psycholinguistics
· The practice of English language teaching
· Psychology of language and language learning
· Teaching English for academic purposes
· Testing and assessment in English language teaching.
