Teaching English as a Second Language - TESL

A degree in ESL teaching qualifies an individual to work in various settings as an ESL instructor, usually in colleges or public schools. Coursework in this discipline includes training in educational methodology, English grammar, linguistics and literary standards, student evaluation techniques, and selection of material. Graduates may qualify to either work in ESL instruction at colleges or private instructional facilities. Many graduates choose to pursue higher levels of education and eventually qualify to work at colleges or universities. Generally a certificate course in ESL instruction is enough for admission to entry-level employment.
