Master of TESOL overview

Master level TESOL study is for those who want the highest qualifications in the field. These programs feature the latest theory in addition to modern teaching practices, with the opportunity to apply those practices in a controlled environment. Monash University is an exemplary host of such courses, exploring the role of cultural context, communication techniques and bilingual development over two years if taken full time.

Employment options

Master level TESOL graduates can comfortably access the jobs mentioned here. They can travel the world with their qualification, but where entirely depends on their second language. TESOL professionals who speak Portuguese ought to teach in Brazil or Portugal, whereas speakers of Mandarin ought to teach in Beijing. Companies like Gold Star Teachers even hire TESOL professionals to work explicitly in China teaching business English.

Scholarships and funding

TESOL students have the opportunity to earn a few varieties of funding. The Alumni Postgrad Scholarship is a program for a limited variety of fields, but TESOL master degree students qualify to earn up to $2000. Other programs are more general, such as the ECIG Scholarship Program available across all fields. This and other programs tend to have particular requirements beyond GPA; students are advised to remain vigilant of these to ensure eligibility. In this case, students must submit essays in a short timeframe to qualify.

Prerequisites and selection process

Master level study in TESOL generally requires prior study in English literature, linguistics or some combination of a four-year bachelor level degree and postgraduate TESOL program.  Curtin University’s Master of Arts (TESOL) is an example of this, requiring proof of English language proficiency in addition to this combination of prior qualifications. Theirs and other courses’ prerequisites are considered typical for this line of study.
