Language Teaching/TESOL (Postgraduate Certificate)

Our Postgraduate Certificate in Language Teaching/TESOL offers you the opportunity to update and expand your knowledge of the theories of language teaching and learning. You will develop and deepen your understanding of classroom practice through personal reflection and discussion with other practitioners.

You will be asked to draw on examples from your own learning and teaching experiences and are encouraged to maintain contact with the classroom as a way of bridging the gap between theory and practice.

If you are not yet ready to commit to an MA, this programme will help you gain cutting-edge knowledge of language teaching. It is ideal if you have classroom experience of teaching second or foreign languages, including English as a second or foreign language, or have a broadly relevant first degree background and an interest in the theory and practice of language teaching.

Upon completion of the course, you can choose to go on to complete our Postgraduate Diploma in Language Teaching/TESOL or one of our two Master’s degrees, MA Language Teaching or MA TESOL, depending on the language you focused on during the certificate.
