香港TESOL专业介绍
与外国语教育专业不同的是,TESOL专业隶属于人文科学学院下的语言学方向,而且主要学习与英语及英语教学相关的课程。
在介绍TESOL这个专业之前呢,我们首先需要知道TESOL与Education之间的区别。
TESOL和Education的区别
TESOL:也就是我们说的对外教学,主要是教学英语,这是在外语研究上比较偏向于实践的一门课程,主要是用来培养英语教师。
Education:对于人类在教育上所出现的问题去做研究,并且揭示出其中的规律的一门课程。
TESOL更多是涉及到英语或者是相关的语言专业这方面,但Education对于学生的背景基本上是不挑的。
也就是原本读的也是教育专业,那么当然能在英国这里读研究类的教育课程,这里很多的学校也会接受本科读的是文科、社科类等等专业的学生。
如果本科是英语专业的,之后想读这个教育学,基本上都会考虑选择TESOL。
