This 3 credit course introduces candidates to all practical aspects of teaching and learning in a TESL (Teaching English as a Second Language) context. Candidates will apply theoretical frameworks introduced in their other MAES courses to an evaluation of classroom approaches through observations and mentoring sessions, as well as observed and assessed practical teaching sessions. Through a series of classroom observations candidates will watch skilled and experienced TESL practitioners and critically evaluate TESL classroom practice. These practitioners in turn will then team teach and observe solo lessons performed by the candidates and provide feedback and final assessments.
