Curriculum Highlights:

Semester 1: Foundations of English Language Teaching begins with Advanced English Grammar (6201TEFL-3), a course that delves into the complexities of English grammar, focusing on enhancing instructors' abilities to teach advanced grammatical structures effectively. Accompanying this is Academic Reading and Writing (6202TEFL-3), dedicated to developing strategies for teaching academic literacy with an emphasis on reading comprehension and writing proficiency. Speech Workshop Seminar (6203TEFL-3) offers a practical approach to refine teaching techniques in spoken English, including pronunciation and fluency. Lastly, the semester includes Phonetics and Phonology (6401TEFL-3), providing an understanding of the sound systems of English, crucial for teaching accurate pronunciation and listening skills.

Semester 2: Methodologies in TEFL expands on teaching methodologies. Teaching English to Young Learners (6501TEFL-3) focuses on specialized methods and approaches for engaging young learners. Teaching English as a Foreign Language (6502TEFL-3) covers comprehensive TEFL methodologies for effective teaching in diverse international contexts. Second Language Acquisition (6503TEFL-3) explores theories and processes behind language learning, essential for informed teaching strategies. Language Assessment (6504TEFL-3) guides educators in designing and implementing effective assessments.

Semester 3: Specialized Applications in TEFL includes Teaching English for Special Purposes (6505TEFL-3), which tailors teaching to specific fields such as business English. Curriculum Design and Materials Development (6506TEFL-3) focuses on creating curricula and educational materials for varied teaching scenarios.

Semester 4: Advanced Practice and Research represents the culmination of the TEFL program. This final semester is structured to provide students with an opportunity to apply their cumulative learning in a practical setting. All students undertake Classroom Discourse Analysis (6509TEFL-3), which involves a detailed analysis of classroom interactions, aiming to enhance teaching effectiveness and student engagement. Additionally, students are required to choose between two capstone experiences: Practicum (6510TEFL-3), offering hands-on teaching experience in a real-world educational environment, or Project (6511TEFL-3), a comprehensive research project that demonstrates their thorough understanding and practical application of TEFL principles. This choice allows students to tailor their final semester to their career aspirations and interests, whether they lean towards direct teaching experience or academic research.
