At a glance

Career opportunities

This course is designed to meet the needs of teachers (or prospective teachers) from overseas who want to acquire the skills and knowledge to teach English in overseas settings as a second, foreign or international language.

The course alone does not qualify graduates to teach TESOL in Victorian schools. Applicants who wish to teach TESOL in Victorian schools must have a recognised teaching qualification with Victorian Institute of Teaching (VIT) registration and additional TESOL training.

If you are seeking a Victorian school teaching qualification and have already completed a bachelors degree, please refer to information about the Master of Teaching programs on the faculty website: www.education.monash.edu/courses/

Domestic students with VIT registration who are seeking specialist TESOL teaching qualifications should consider the Master of Education with a specialisation in TESOL.

Why study Master of Education (TESOL International)?

The Master of Education (TESOL International) offers a complete range of units covering basic teaching principles through issues in curriculum and assessment to broader socio-cultural concerns regarding the place of English in learners' lives. Students will develop an understanding of the theory and practice of teaching English as a second, foreign or international language in a range of contexts (primary, secondary, tertiary and the workplace).
