Master of Science [M.Sc] [Events Management] From University of Lincoln

You will explore the essential elements in language teaching, studying the processes of learning and teaching language, in addition to the study of language itself. You will also develop the knowledge and skills required to evaluate TESOL theoretical frameworks, materials and procedures in addition to those required for the practical management of the classroom.

Language education expertise

The Language Education Team in the School of Education is nationally and internationally recognised for its range of teaching, research, knowledge transfer and consultancy work in TESOL Studies, ELT, EFL, ESOL, EAL, Modern Foreign Languages, and Applied Linguistics.

University of Leeds is one of the largest language education teams in the UK. As education practitioners, we have a wide range of experience of teaching and teacher education work in many contexts in the UK and around the world. As researchers, we have a broad range of expertise across the discipline with ongoing research projects in teacher development, language use in migrant communities, learning with digital technologies, and IELTS preparation courses.

Career opportunities

The majority of our students are international students, and they tend to return to their home countries to embark on careers in English language teaching in primary, secondary or tertiary education in the private or public sectors.

Many such graduates are now teaching in, for example, university language centres, private language schools, or state secondary schools in the Middle East, China, Japan, Korea or Cyprus.

Each year we do have some UK students, some of whom remain in the UK teaching ESOL, while others go abroad.

The methodological skills and theoretical knowledge they develop have allowed some to move into teaching other languages, such as Chinese.
