- MA(TESL) is an academically oriented qualification that retains the research-oriented focus of the original MA(TESL) but with greater emphasis on bridging theory and practice. This 2-year MA includes a thesis.
- M(TESL) is a more professionally oriented Masters level qualification by coursework for ELT practitioners who require the theoretical and hands on practical exposure to teaching English as a second language without an explicit research focus. This is a 1-year MA by coursework.
- The PGD(TESL) allows a flexible option for those who seek professional development and certification in ELT – particularly those seeking to take on English Language Teaching as a career.
All three programmes include a practicum, and a portfolio compiled by the students.
