Oxford University - MSc in TESOL online.

nyvrem · Mar 27, 2016

The MSc TELUS is a specialised distance/online Master’s degree in applied linguistics for TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages).

This innovative two-year part-time course offers a cutting-edge introduction to the linguistic and pedagogic knowledge and skills needed for teaching English language in higher education. A low-residency course, it is characterised by intense online interaction and feedback, using a range of communication media. Its small-group teaching format pursues the Oxford tradition of demanding much of students and giving them much in return.

What prior experience do you need?

Applicants are expected to have English teaching experience (normally at least one year), a willingness to reflect upon their teaching, and a commitment to work very hard undertaking an exciting intellectual endeavour.

How is the course taught?

The course is taught over two academic years, preceded each year by a week’s residential module in Oxford (in 2015, 24th -28th August). Numbers on the course are kept low, to ensure quality of teaching and learning: in each year we aim to recruit a maximum of eight students, for a total of sixteen students in the two year groups working together in a given year.

There are four distance-taught modules per year, spread over two eight-week terms from October to April. The assessment for each module comprises a take-home examination and a reflective portfolio. In the third term of the first year, students may pursue guided individual study on a chosen topic, and students who wish to progress to MSc usually take advantage of this opportunity to begin developing a dissertation project.The MSc TELUS is a specialised distance/online Master’s degree in applied linguistics for TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages).
