Why study an M.A. in TESOL and Intercultural Studies?

An M.A. in TESOL and Intercultural Studies provides teachers with a solid foundation in the field of TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages). Designed for both novice and experienced English language teachers, this program is the standard professional degree for positions in universities, language institutes, community colleges, and adult education programs.

 

Two tracks for the MA-TESOL

There are two tracks for pursuing the Master of Arts in TESOL. The Accelerated MA-TESOL is for current undergraduate Wheaton College students. These students can earn their graduate degree by staying for a fifth year of study. The General MA-TESOL is for those who already hold a bachelor’s degree (from Wheaton College or another institution). The General MA-TESOL has three different options for completion ranging from a fully residential, field-based and a hybrid Flex option.
